save as prodefservices.inf and use to restore services to normal

Ok, used TweakUI to edit the location of "My Music"

Here is the registry entry for "F:\My Music"

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders]
"My Music"=hex(2):46,00,3a,00,5c,00,4d,00,79,00,20,00,4d,00,75,00,73,00,69,00,\
  63,00,00,00

Now I guess since you know more than me, this will give you a place to start and change it to whatever drive letter you use.

Just edit the string to what you want it to be. Microsoft uses [strings] for localisation.

thanks geckotek.. must be that the reg key's added when wmp is installed by setup.. you can tell by gosh's post above.. thanks for that.. i suppose you could do the whole tweak through a reg file theres no need to use an inf.. although if your using the inf to redirect your folders just add the my music folder redirection to it

I don't think WMP added it. It wasn't there when I looked before. TweakUI added it.

Next install I'll just try adding it to the folders.inf and see what happens.
