$OEM$ Help

[wazer]

Hello im using $OEM$ Folders to add many special documents for games, work. etc etc..

so heres my folder structure on my usb pen this is one of my things i add.

USB PEN:

x:\sources\$OEM$\$Docs\Heroes of Newerth

In that folder theres all my settings for this game.

Now the question.

Everytime i do this, and reinstalling windows 7.

It will show 2 folders that are called C:\Users\Administrator\Documents and its excatly the same name even tho its not possible to have the exact program/folder with the same name in at the same place.

And the only folder that is valid is the one windows made under the installation, so my own old folder is inactive/defective and i need to delete it and use the new one windows made for me.

Is im the only person in this world that has this problem, i have tryed google but only shows up hints with vista and peoples problem with documents. But not when using any unattended method.

I am only using the administrator account nothing else.

\$OEM$\$Docs isn't available for Windows 7.

You can try to make an archive with WinRAR, for example!

With WinRar I use this comment (French version for me) for the .exe file:

Le commentaire ci-dessous contient des commandes pour script SFX

Path=%userprofile%\Mes Documents
SavePath
Silent=1
Overwrite=1

Hello thanks for you answer but $Docs is in fact available for Windows 7. Try it your self.

You mean you don't want use an archive, but use \$OEM$\$Docs?
