> So what, I have never had a single file in any of these directories. One of the most puzzling habits of installers is that habit of adding hidden subdirectoies of WINNT in which to place certain temporary files created during the running of an app.
Take for example There is no way to change the location of this directory. These temp files are sometimes needed to be accessed. My quesion is why do they need to be placed in a branch of the directory which contains the OS? There must be some gain. but as far I see it just confuses things in the same fashion as placing dll files in WINNT\system32
> The M$ (and the followers thereof) debris that sits in the directories you I wonder if there is any setting in the registry which has something like %documents%= My Documents. I'll have a look I rememeber you saying that you change My Computer to Local, but that would also require some changes to the registry , yes?
