[QUESTION] Reg entries for Shotcuts in Open...

[Pantner]

SOrry for the title...its a little hard to explain...

You know when you go into a program, like MS WORD and click on open.

You then get a Browse Window Up. On the left of the Window there are 5 shortcuts like MY COMPUTER, MY DOCS, MY NETWORK PLACES, etc...

How do you change them...like, i never use MY NETWORK PLACES, i would like to change that to my default DOwnload Directory...

i know you can do it, cause i saw it on CALL FOR HELP (in Leo i trust!!!) but it was ages ago, and i can't find the info again...

You need to create the reg key outlined below, it is not present by default.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ComDlg32\Placesbar]
"Place0"=dword:00000000
"Place1"=hex(2):25,00,53,00,79,00,73,00,74,00,65,00,6d,00,44,00,72,00,69,00,76,\
  00,65,00,25,00,5c,00,00,00
"Place2"="D:\\"
"Place3"="E:\\"
"Place4"=dword:00000011

In the above

Place0 = Desktop

Place1 = %systemdrive%\

Place2 & Place3 = obvious

Place4 = My Computer

Here's a few default values you can use in place of absolute paths

Desktop: 00000000

My Documents: 00000005

My Computer: 00000011
