Hello All1,

If you have a 64-bit Windows 7 installed, then be sure to also do the additional step for it to remove them from the "Save as" and "Browse" type dialog boxes. However, some 3rd party programs may use their own "Save as" and "Browse" dialog boxes that ignore this and still show all of them.

• How to Add or Remove the "Libraries" Folder from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove "Favorites" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove "Homegroup" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove "Computer" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove "Network" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove "Control Panel" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove your "User Folder" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane
• How to Add or Remove the "Recycle Bin" from the Windows 7 Navigation Pane

For example, this "Browse" dialog box has "Libraries" removed from it.

Hope this helps,

Hope this helps,Shawn

Yep sure does Shawn, i thought doing the explorer mods i have already done would have sorted it but looks like i have more work to do, yes i do have 64bit so i'll do those other steps, i'll take an image know (just incase i balls it up) and then do the steps you mentions many thanks.

You're most welcome All1. I'll look into the username one some more to see if I may be able to find out what it may be, and post back if I do.
