Disabling all this my docs, my pics, etc. junk
2004-09-18, 10:04 AM #1
RAWRRRRR...

Windows my documents severely irritate me! It used to be a bunch of folders, that just took up a few hundred megs of space that I just never paid attention to, but now I've noticed that more and more of my new games are INSTALLING THEIR SAVED FILES there... And since I have 5 accounts on this computer, there's a different save directory for when i play a game, when my sister plays the same game, and everyone else!

Any way that I can disable it and go back to the 98 way of saving in the game directory, or at least consolidate it all into one my documents directory somewhere?

Also, anyone know how to get rid of my pics, my music, etc.?

get linux, o wait you said you have 5 accounts. nevermind.


maybe SHIFT+DELETE instead of just pressing delete when selected. shift+delete gets rid of it completly. doesnt even go into the recycle bin. unless my music and such is on of those files where it reappears after like 5 secs.

My Pics and My Music is easy, delete the folder. It's what I've done, and it works for me.

As for your game problem, I haven't a clue. I don't play many recent games so I don't have that problem.
