save as picture default location

[koden]

When i save a document the default location in the save box is my documents...

can I change this to a default location of my own choice?

When you do a save picture as (in either IE or Firefox), and change where to save the file, it should save that location for the next time you try to do a save as. The only reasons why it doesn't is if the last used location doesn't exist anymore. Like you are saving to a removeable drive, or you renamed the folder, etc. I imagine this is kept in the registry someplace, but it will always default back to My Documents (or My Pictures) if it can't find the last used place. Also it may be reset if you change settings in your browser, like resetting to defaults.

There is a default place and a last used place. It will try to open the last used place first, if it can't find it, it will use the default place. Its good to have it in My Documents because that will always be there. I would hate to think what would happen if you changed the default place, and then moved the folder or something. Would Windows crash at that point?

I was just thinking, perhaps this is located in a PATH variable?
