By default some programs save their configuration to the USERPROFILE
folder.
Typically this is
C:\Users\Steven
I would like to change where these programs are saving these files, possibly
C:\Users\Steven\Configs
How would I go about doing this?
You're right, the linked question is not really that great to do what you want, so I've changed it to something a little more appropriate. The answer itself still stands, they are writing to the USERPROFILE folder, you either need to change the profile folder/location, or change the programs so they write where you want. – Ƭᴇcʜιᴇ007 – 2012-03-15T04:24:00.777
Again, you havent thought your answer through. What exactly would I change my
ProfilesDirectory
to in the registry? Even if I changed it toC:\Users\Steven\Configs
, the programs would write toC:\Users\Steven\Configs\Steven
, not to mention this would break any other user profiles that exist. – Steven Penny – 2012-03-15T14:34:13.210
