I am an oldfashioned computer user, who usually decides and usually
knows where EVERYTHING is on my computer. MS Explorer in Windows is my
main helper in keeping things as I wish.
However, of late, more and more information is placed by applications
(and some other precesses) into various directories deeply burried in
a very looooong hierarchy starting with the directory "USER." To make
things worse, there may be more than one of these USERS. I would like
to undo this practice and get back to putting things where I want them
to reside. There is no one else whom I would have to satisfy; I fly my
machine solo.
Is there someone out there who shares my frustration and has found a
way to defeat those brilliant software engineers who are bent and
bound to make our lives miserable?
I want to get back to where all computer events were decided by a
human USER's considered judgment — by me.
PS: I do not object to suggestions made by applications at the time of
installation, but I want to be the final judge every time.
