Hi all,
my system is WinXP Home, SP2, and there are 3 users on my PC. I would like
to move the folder 'Shared Documents' to an other partition, from
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Shared Documents to, say,
F:\DocumentsShared. Why? I'd like to separate System and Userdata. I've
already moved, for each user, the folders 'My Documents' to partition F:\.
This was easy. However, moving the folder 'Shared Documents' to F:\, thus
enabling each user to have access to Shared Documents, Shared Pictures, and
Shared Music, seems to be impossible:
TweakUI cannot do it, tells me to move this folder manually. But this does
not work (in contrast to 'My Documents'), I get the error message "Shared
Documents" is a system folder and cannot be moved from C: to F:". Is this
really so? Why can't I move shared documents, pictures, music, and videos to
an other partition, such that each user has easy access to shared documents,
pictures and videos when he clicks on 'Shared Documents'? It works for 'My
Documents', why not for shared ones?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
siggi
