Remapping the Favourites Folder

[Guest]

Hi guys!

I was wondering whether it would be possible to remap the favourites folder
within Internet Explorer. We have 10 machines on an LAN and would like them
to have a globalised favourites folder located on our server so that if
someone added a bookmark on one computer it would be visible on all the
others. Any chances as possible?

Thanks a million!

In what operating system?
(Yes, it can be different)

You can change the value of Favorites in the Registry in these
two keys: (ignore the second if the value is not there)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders
