Sandi,
That slight (or more than slight) panic you're feeling is nothing more
than the result of having this thread broken up over so many posts and
replies. A TON of thoughts, possibilities and ideas have been hitting you
in a sort of 'broken' way and I apologize to you for that. I sometimes go
off on tangents that are related to what we're working on in order to give
other members ideas for using the topic on their own systems. While that's
really not fair to you, I do it somewhat intentionally for the benefit of
the full group.
Since there ar eno other partitions or hard drives available for this,
the next best thing is to simply bring it out into the open. In other
words, follow your own directions exactly as you've typed them below and
Right Drag the My Docs folder directly to the C:\ icon in the left pane of
Windows Explorer. In other words, you're loooking to Move it to C:\,
instead of placing it in some other folder/subfolder. The finished path
will be:
C:\My Documents
And you'll see that path showing in the address bar near the top of
Windows Explorer when you click directly on it after the Move.
Yes, the contents of the My Docs folder will still be available by ALL
the usual means under Windows, including the shortcut on your desktop. The
only method that will no longer work is by going to Documents and Setting >
Joyce, since it will no longer be there. :O)
Peace,
GMan
