My Pictures folder problem

[vzlion]

When downloading pictures they are often automatically placed in the
"My Pictures" folder. How can I have them automatically placed in the
folder of my choice? Thanks,

Walt

You can change the folder that "My Pictures" points to.

Start-Run-Regedit
Navigate down to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders
Alter the data against "My Pictures" to the folder you want.

Do the same (if the value is there) in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders
