Hi all,

 

Wondering. My 'My Documents' folder is getting a bit filled up with

directories. There are however four directories I never use, and which I can

not remove if I remember correctly. I mean the directories 'My eBooks', 'My

Music', 'My Pictures' and 'My Videos'. Is it possible to remove these

directories without them reappearing again?

 

TIA

Michel

    I just deleted My Pictures from My Documents and it didn't come back even

    after a reboot. That's not to say that some Windows or MS application might

    not restore the folder during an installation or Repair operation. Don't

    know about that.

    eBooks comes from Adobe software. See this link:
