My Documents - I give inJul9

Thursday, 9 July 2009 by Haemoglobin

Ok - I'm over applications littering my "Documents" folder with their stuff. For example the automatically created Visual Studio folder, MSN Received files folder, digsby chat history folders, and user settings and files of numerous other applications that chose to put folders in there!

Yes, in each case, which I have been doing, it is possible to change the location of these - sometimes through hacking the registry or fiddling with a config file, but it really is an uphill battle.. so yes, I officially give in :|

Applications, you may use my "Documents" folder all you want now, because I am no longer using it - I have abandoned it for my own "My Files" folder where I can look for things without having to navigate around random application folders. It's like clothes from yesterday (last week / last month - depending on who you are) on the floor that annoy you every time you see them, but you never really do anything about). Now they can have their very own washing basket to play in.
