I do not want to use the libraries if I go to start and click documents,pictures, etc to go to my user folder quivalent of them. is there a way to change it? I don't care if they are in explorer I just don't want them when I click my user folder links. This really makes me want to go back to vista and is the one feature that is really causing me to not give 7 a chance. all the other little stuff i don't like i can get used to but not this.
Start Menu Properties
Do not show Pix, Docs, Music etc.
User folders
Show as menu
A possible alternative.
But is it possible to have documents and such listed but have it to go to the folder? Wouldn't displayign as a menu still use the library?
Just tried and it still keeps the library behavior. Ijust want the links to function as they did in Vista.
Confirming - you cascaded User folder to reveal Docs, Pix, etc and when you click one the library opens?
Not here. This is worth exploring (pun).
I will not assist you further unless you fill out your system specs.
Alright I have noticed that if you add Downloads to the start menu it goes right to the folder. This would imply there being a registry entry somewhere that controls the link. Any idea where I might start searching for it?
What build of 7 are you on?
I am buying time. Checking reg. -
Also, the kids want to go swimming. I might be gone shorlty. Because you filled out your specs, now many knowledgeable SF members can help.
I am running Windows 7 Professional x86.
