Win7 Tips: Change User Folder Location Method Summary

I believe many people are feeling "how to make C disk space smaller and smaller", as a system disk, in fact, many original Windows7 computer hard disks are not partitioned. , a c drive, a hidden recovery disk. For those who have complicated work and more files, the well-organized hard disk space is the first step in daily work processing, so few people will use the c drive as a common disk, so many people will always entangle the c drive. The size of the space.

Windows7 system will set all personal folders in the c drive, such as cache, temporary files, program files, program settings files, etc., you open the browser to have a cache, a run program has a temporary File, c disk space can not be small?

Today, I will introduce three methods to modify the location of these personal folders, and I will move them to the decompression of the c drive.

The first one is our optimization essential tool —— Rubik's cube optimization master

Open the optimization setting master, and then find the system settings & rdquo;, “ system folder Settings & rdquo;. For each folder name and location description, select the folder you want to modify, click on the bottom right corner “ modify location”, in the text box after "move to", type the message you want to modify. Location, or click "Browse" to select the location you want to modify. In addition, Rubik's Cube also provides the way to process the files in the original folder when modifying the location —— move, copy or not process, for friends who just installed the system, you can choose "do not process", if the original file There are files under, depending on your personal situation, choose to move or copy. And the Rubik's cube optimization master is more intimate, but also prepared for everyone "return to the system default" for future troubles. After clicking Modify, a dialog box for confirming whether to change is displayed. After selecting OK, the resource manager process will automatically restart and the setting will take effect immediately. The resource manager will automatically restart each time you set a location. No need to worry, no toxic side effects.

The second one, you need to use the powerful system settings tool &mdash of windows system; — registry

Open the registry, you can choose the "Start menu" & rdquo; search in "regedit", enter the run, or Win + R, open the "run" window, type "ldedit", enter the run, or open the Rubik's Cube optimization master, found in the "applications" “Windows System Toolbox”, open “Registry Editor”

Then expand to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Explorer\\Shell Folders"

Value Names and Personal Files The folder corresponds to the following:

Cache——IE browser cache

Cookies——IE browser cookie

Desktop——desktop

Favorites&mdash ;—IE browser favorites

History——IE browser history

My Music——my music

My Pictures——my pictures

My Video——My Videos

Personal——My Documents

{374DE290-123F-4565-9164-39C4925E467B}——Downloads ( Can be judged according to the value data contains downloads)

Commonly used personal folders to enumerate these, in turn modify the numerical data into a custom folder path ok, do not forget, in advance The defined folder is created~

Don't worry, there is also a location that needs to be modified, and then expand to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVe Rsion\\Explorer\\User Shell Folders”, the following key values ​​are set as above, and will not be described again.

The third one is simple and easy to use, and it is more suitable for computers that have just installed the system.

That is to open this location C:\\Users\\username, below it “My Pictures”,“My Documents”,“My Videos”,“I The music & rdquo; and so on the folder directly cut to other discs, the system will automatically determine, but remember to restart oh ~ and for computers that are not new systems, or do not recommend this method, everyone with caution! It is best to use the first method, remember: the Rubik's Cube is at hand, optimization is not awkward!

I hope that these methods can make people no longer entangled in the size of the c disk space, and hope to bring you a organized office environment.
