Ok Shawn
I deleted all Recorded TV folders and all Recorded TV libraries and reset the start menu using the default reg file in this tutorial.Also named the c:\users\public TV folder to Public Recorded TV.So identical to yours.I relocated the desktop folder back to c: to count that out as well. So back to square 1. Rebooted and created a new Recorded TV folder but on c:\users\danny which is the same as yours so that rules out a location issue.
Right Clicked on c:\users\public\Public Recorded TV include in library\create new library.Renamed that library to Recorded TV (just removed public) Included the new c:\users\danny Recorded TV folder I created for this test.All fine to this point the library shows the 2 locations.Public on top and default save location.
Right clicked Recorded TV in the start menu\properties and included the C:\Users\danny\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries\Recorded TV library which added the 2 locations c:\users\public recorded tv and c:\users\danny\recorded tv.
Ran the reg file from c:\desktop.Agreed yes yes and rebooted.
And STILL no location change.If that reads identical to what you did feel free to email me lots of expletives because i just dont know where im going wrong.I dont think theres anything else to try so I will thank you for all your time and patience and hope your still talking to me.
Thanks Shawn

I looks like you did it the same way I did. I don't know what else to suggest anymore either.
Thought id have another look at this.
Wish I hadnt bothered lol. Still cant get the on screen location to change.Interestingly though It also doesnt change if I customise the Recorded TV start menu library like here Add Custom Folder/Library to the Start Menu and change the name to something else and point it to any file on my D drive.It still shows as pointing to public users instead of the D drive.
You managed to change the location of the library.
Therefore You would be able to change the recorded tv name to anything you like and point it to any folder and it would show as above.
That is presuming you could get the damn thing to change in the first place.

You may be able to right click on Recorded TV in the Start Menu, click on Rename, type in a new name, press Enter, give UAC approval to change the name.
Afterwards, right click on Recorded TV in the Start Menu, click on Properties, include the folder you want it to point to, set this folder as the new Save To folder. If you didn't want any other folder included in the library, then you could remove them to only have the new folder in it.
Hmm, ok. When you go to the first path below inside the Libraries folder, press and hold Shift key, right click on Recorded TV, click on Copy as path, and paste it into your post here, does it have a path like the second one below but with your username?
C:\Users\(user-name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries
"C:\Users\(user-name)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Libraries\Recorded TV.library-ms"
