Relocate a library folder

Question

Out of the (Win7) box, the Public Pictures library points to C:\Users\Public\Pictures. I would like to reset that so it resolves to a secondary harddrive.

Answer 2

Open C:\Users\Public\ in Windows Explorer, right click on the Public Pictures folder and select Properties.

Inside of the Properties window, select the Location tab. Here you can specify the location the folder should be stored in.

Answer 3

Open your Windows Explorer. Right click on the "Pictures" Library, and hit Properties. Once it opens, you will see a list of folders that can be used. Hit the include a folder button, then navigate to the folder you wish to use. I tested this myself, using the Video's folder
