User folder path

[cmonkedo]

Can anyone tell me how to change the path of the "userabc" folder in vista I know you can change each individual folder path inside of the "userabc" folder I am basically asking for a method similar to XP change my documents path.

Changing the path will involve moving the folder - I don't think that that's what you're asking for.

Could you be a bit more specific about what you'd like to do?

sorry I misspoke path is not the proper term it is labeled target in xp. In order to change this target you right click the "my documents" icon on the desktop and select the "target" tab and you may change this to whatever you like. does this singular control exist in vista. I have found in vista that once inside the "userabc" you can right click on the system created folders and select location and move it. I have found some issues with this method once you have several files in it, the process tends to error. I have never seen the process of changing the target in xp error. also I would like to not have to do this method 1 folder at a time for about 10 pc's.

This isn't as easy as it may seem (and is way beyond my abilities). Here's some info on how to do it:

I'd suspect that you could somehow script it to work - but I don't have those sort of skills.

thanks for the tips usasma ! but your right without knowing how to write a script to do those tasks it almost seems easier to just move each of them individually. thanks for your help
