Easily open and disable the Libraries (library) folder in Windows 7

To better understand the concept of the library in Windows 7, it is important to review similar features in previous versions of Windows. In Windows XP and Vista, Microsoft provides users with a series of special folders for storing personal documents and pictures. In Vista, these folders are designed to help users find the files they want to find more quickly. However, many users, including me, will still be on the hard drive to place files everywhere, which will give the system index and search problems.

So, in Windows 7, Microsoft introduced the concept of libraries so that users could customize the folders in the library to quickly find them.

In Windows 7, the library is part of the resource Manager and Windows Shell, which makes the library work the same as other folders, and enables you to search for resources in the repository through the search functionality in Explorer.

Basically, a library is like a folder. In other words, you can see more subfolders after you open the library. But the difference is that libraries can display multiple folders in different locations at the same time. And more importantly, the library is not really the place to store the files, accurately speaking, the library is just a virtual folder, but also can be understood as a place to store shortcuts to each folder.

However, the folders added to the library are first included in the Windows 7 indexing system. Otherwise, it will not be added to the library.

But for domestic users, many people do not adapt to this organization, then, how to remove it?
