I have managed to redirect the stupid "my documents" folder to the drive where I keep my documents. But now I'm having this ridiculous battle with XP: I keep deleting the "my pictures" folder from my drive, and the next day it's back again ... I have hundreds of image files, every one of them is connected to some *logical* project - the fact that it happens to be a picture is simply not relevant to the organization of my work and I just want to save my files where I want!! And I don't like to have some useless folder that I'm not using sitting at the top-level of my drive! Is there *any* way to get XP to leave me alone with it's forced helpfulness?

Thanks a lo
Anna
 
You could edit the registry and delete all references to
My Pictures, but I wouldn't recommend that. You may just
have to live with it.
