Default Save location...

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsme.general (More info?)

Whenever I attempt to save any new document or picture, the Save As location
defaults to My Documents and My Documents/My Pictures, respectively. Then I
have to scroll to select C:\, and scroll to the location I prefer. Is there
any way I can change the default Save As location to the folders I most
often use?

Thanks.

If I save consecutive docs, then yes, it remembers the last location. But on
each fresh boot it defaults to My Documents. I'd like to change that default
to another location.

Thanks.

Thanks, that does help; I can't believe I overlooked that. Any ideas on how
I can do that for images?
