Tips for Windows 7-how to change the user folder location

I believe many people are feeling "How is the size of disk C getting smaller and smaller". As a system disk, in fact, many original Windows 7 hard disks are not partitioned, one C disk and one hidden recovery disk. For people with complicated work and a large number of files, organized hard disk space is the first step in daily work to process files. Therefore, few people use drive C as a common disk, as a result, many people will always struggle with the size of the C drive space. In Windows 7, all the personal folders are set on drive C, such as cache, temporary files, program files, and program setting files. Once you open the browser, the files are cached, when a program runs, there will be temporary files. How can I keep the size of disk C unchanged? Today, we will introduce three methods to modify the location of these personal folders. The first is our essential tool for optimization-cube optimization master ( http://mofang.ithome.com/ ) Open the optimization settings master, and find "system settings" and "system folder Settings" in sequence ". There are instructions on the name and location of each folder. Select the folder you want to modify and click "Modify location" in the lower right corner ", in the text box after "move to", type the location you want to modify, or click "Browse" to select the location you want to modify. In addition, Rubik's Cube also provides the processing method for modifying the location of files in the original folder-moving, copying, or not processing. For friends who just installed the system, you can select "Do not process". If there is a file under the original file, you can choose to move or copy the file as needed. In addition, the master of Rubik's Cube optimization is more considerate. We have also prepared "Restore to System Default" for you to prepare for future troubles. After you click Modify, the dialog box to confirm the change is displayed. After you select OK, the Resource Manager process automatically restarts and the settings take effect immediately. The Resource Manager Automatically restarts each time a location is set. No worries, no side effects. Second, you need to use the powerful windows system tool-open the Registry to open the registry, you can choose to search "regedit" in the "Start Menu", Press enter to run, or Win + R, open the "run" window, type "regedit", Press enter to run, or open cube optimization master, find "Windows toolbox" in "application", and open "Registry Editor. Then, expand www.2cto.com to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ Shell Folders". The values correspond to the following: cache -- IE browser Cache Cookies -- IE browser cookie Desktop -- Desktop Favorites -- IE browser Favorites History -- IE browser History My Music -- My Music My Pictures -- My Pictures My Video -- My Video Personal -- I {374de290-123f-4565-9164-39c%e467b} -- download (this can be determined based on downloads included in the numerical data) you can list the commonly used personal folders. You can change the value data to a custom folder path in turn. Don't forget to create a custom folder in advance ~ Do not worry. You still need to modify the location. Expand to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ User Shell Folders" in sequence. The following key values are set the same as above, I will not go into details. The third type of www.2cto.com is simple and suitable for computers with just installed systems. That is, open the Location C: \ Users \ User Name, and paste "my images", "My documents", "My videos ", "My music" and other folders are directly cut to other disks. The system will automatically identify them, but remember to restart them ~ This method is not recommended for computers that are not new systems. Use it with caution! It is best to use the first method, remember: Cube in hand, optimization is not worried! We hope that these methods will make everyone no longer worry about the size of the C drive space, but also hope to bring you a organized office environment. This article is from the Win7 house
