I try to keep all of my stuff off the C drive. Although Microsoft install disks have the ability to reinstall or "fix" the system without wiping the C drive the installs that come with most laptops do not all this. In other words, if your system gets messed up you lose all data on the C drive. So, I partition the disk and keep my data on another drive. I use the C drive for the system and applications I can reinstall from other sources.
I don't want my J user folder in C:\Users\* or anywhere else on the C drive. A little help would be appreciated on a non-J but related issue. I was forced to Vista and, with folders that seem to exist only while you are logged on and folders which require more permissions than I can get to access, I can't get many of my applications to store their data off the C drive by default. Has anyone else figured out how to deal with this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For information about J forums see http://www.jsoftware.com/forums.htm
