Navigate to: <BR>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion <BR>2. Find ProgramFilesDir whose default should be C:\Program Files <BR>3.

Seems as though the programs are caching into my "My Documents" folder...<br><br>I just bought a new dell :) And it came with Win Xp MCE 2005. it's awesome and i love it, but there is something peculiar going on as I run programs on it...<br><br>...it's placing folders into my My Documents (i.e., settings, etc etc). Of course, i did NOT install the applications to that folder, it just seems to have chosen this folder instead of placing the files where they go: C:/windows/programs<br><br>How can i correct this?<br><br>And would it be safe to just move the fodlers manually where they are supposed to go...the corresponding program file folder. ?Fri, 24 Feb 2006 18:22:28 GMTHighFrequency
