Is there a way to stop XP from creating directories under "My Documents?"

[Hulk]

I realize this isn't a big deal, but is there a way to make Windows XP stop creating "My Music," or "My Pictures" directories under "My Documents" once you have deleted these directories. I have enough directories here and the extra ones XP create just slow me down when searching for things.

If you delete them, then upon the next boot, Windows recreates them.

Does anyone know of a registry edit or something to stop them from being recreated after deleting them?

Thanks for any help.

I don't know of a way to keep them from being created, but did you consider marking the directories hidden? (at least hiding them from being in your way?)

Good idea. Thanks.
