Change the path to 'My music' and 'My pictures' folders in WinXP

[AngelOfDeath]

I'm really annoyed that I can change the path to 'My Documents' but it doesn't seem possible to change to path of the above mentioned maps. Is there anyway to do that?

I don't remember how I did it, but my My Music, Videos, & Pictures are in My Documents on my mapped network drive which is set as My Documents target...hmm...weird....they even have the special icons and functionality.

I think I just moved (not copied) them from Documents and Settings to the network drive which is the target of My Documents.

I think u right click on the My Documents folder and select properties. U can set the revised location there.

He knows how to do that, the problem is, when you point it to a target directory, that directory is blank and you lose the functionality of the My... folders.

Get the Windows XP Powertoys, which will install TweakUI. In TweakUI, go to My Computer > Special Folders, select the Folder from the drop-down menu, and choose Change Location.
