I want to change the registry to enable user to save in a different folder, for all software that defaults to my documents, my music, my photos

I know word has this option but I need to change it for all time

thanks for any help
Regards
Bob

Thanks for that, I just tried it & I am now confused.

My documents folder did point to new folder, but when I opened Excel & tried to save a document it did not list new folder, only MyDocuments

Maybe, MyDocuments is hard coded in Excel, I will try again tomorrow as I am short of time at present

Regards
Bob :(

Let me know how it goes, I'm curious to see.
