Because I dislike the "My Documents" nomenclature MS foisted on us from Win95 on, and particularly dislike the way they resurrected it in Win7 after killing it in Vista, I rename those folders back to just "Documents" and so forth -- which is what the DOS paths are anyway. Then I rename the "Favorites" links in the Explorer navigation pane to ~Documents etc., because it won't let me have just Documents (that being reserved for the Documents Library, which as far as I'm concerned is just a completely unnecessary layer of imaginary folders). That all works fine -- until a Windows patch changes them back and disappears the links. That's happened twice now -- the second time yesterday.

That reminds me, I must rename the 'My Music' file as 'Sound Files' - because most of them are radio drama downloads...
