How can I change the drive on which my library is located in Windows 7?

It seems that 'Library' in Win7 is what was used to be called "My Documents" in XP, right?

It used to be %HomeDrive% on Windows XP would determine where the "My Documents".  I have built a Windows 7 computer and created two volumes on my boot disk... they are C: and F:.  I want to put just the operating system and of my applications on C: and what was used to be called 'My Documents' on the F:.

How can I do this?

Thank you.

The library is a container.
Move the Documents folder on the F drive (right click on Documents, properties-map) and the library /should/ re - point himself at this place.

    No you haven't, how it was labeled in the old pc is irrelevant, just install you it as slave on your PC drive, depends on the question of if you need to change the jumper on the drive. Some PC manufacturers require the rider to be set as "cable select" others as "slave" (unless of course, it's a sata drive that requires no jumpers)

  • How can I change the drive letter assigned to the partition of 'winretools' on a laptop Win 8?

    I'm just going through the process to customize a new Inspiron 14z with Windows 8. The only thing that left me speechless are all provided partitions installed on drive, thanks to a combination of everything be different on Win8, Dell make their own way and GPT formatting.  Generally, I would like to know what the devil all these partitions are for, but it is fine if it will be a slow learning process.  More precisely and immediately, I need to change the drive letter assigned to the partition of 'WINRETOOLS '.  Currently it is D:, and the problem is that 10 years from now, I'm using as my data partition D: and a number of applications, configurations, settings, etc. assume that all my files are on D:.  For example, by having all my music on D:, I can sync iTunes library and preference between machines and all results files and playlists is from a machine to another.  Same thing for my photos.  Same for a bunch of utilities like FTP consoles, sync utilities...

    In an earlier version of Windows, I would just go into management drives, right click on the partition in question, assign a different drive letter and work done.  On my machine, the WINRETOOL 2 GB partition shows not even as having a drive letter in disk management, despite the fact that it is D: in Win Explorer.  In addition, only the right click option is 'help '.  I took this option, and, despite its aspirations, it is not useful.

    How can I change this drive letter to something else?  WINRETOOLS should even have a drive letter in Explorer (some messages that I've seen indicates that it must be hidden)?  If I change the drive letter, which will break its function, whatever it is?

    ....

    My machine has a 500 GB of rotating disk that has all of the above partitions.  I shrunk the 80 GB C: partition, to create a data partition.  I've not yet formatted the unallocated space I want to solve this WINRETOOLS thing first.  Finally, there is a 32 GB of SSD that I put in place as a cache of the Intel Smart Response, and it is no longer visible to the operating system.

    At the command prompt, type the following and press "enter":

    mountvol D:\/d

    Close the command prompt.

    Drive D: letter should now be available and not used.

    Here's some info about Mountvol, it's very powerful to be safe to use it:

  • How can I change the driver for my processor?

    CPU driver

    Hello, I tried to run this game called 'minecraft' but I never load...

    to cut to the Chase, I need the driver of Intel P4/NetBurst Architecture processor or equivalent AMD (AMD K7)
    I have AMD Sempron (TM) TR-42...
    How can I change my driver? Help, please

    First of all, check that you have the latest BIOS for your system. All pilots must be installed automatically for Windows Update.

    The AMD Sempron (TM) TR-42 is an old, low powered CPU and the message you see is probably because Sempron SI - 42 http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Mobile%20Sempron%20SI-42%20-%20SMSI42SAM12GG.html isn't a sufficient processor to run Minecraft.

  • How can I view the administrator account, which is not even in SafeMode (Windows 7)?

    I was instructed to set up a Windows 7 PC. It has been used before, but I don't know by whom or how it was used. In order to do a bit of setting up I want, I need access to the administrator account. I have an account that is in the group administrator, Admin, but the account itself seems to be hidden or missing. It does not appear when I boot in safe mode. How can I access the administrator?

    I found my own answer. The administrator account is disabled. Enable it, run the policy group, then Configuration Editor Local computer--> Windows settings security settings local policies--> security-> accounts options-->-->:--> Enable Administrator account status.

    After that, I was able to connect to the administrator.

  • How can I change the drive letter of the cd/DVD/BD in windows 8

    The only thing that appears under device management is hard drives.  Optical drives do not arise as they did under XP or 7.

    In Windows 8, the optical drives are listed in the Device Manager under CD/DVD-ROM drives.

    In windows 8, the drive letter assignments are made in the disk management snap-in in.

    Access

    Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative tools

    Computer management

    Disk management

    Highlight the device in the list, click the icon to the left of the list on the right left

    In the context menu, select change drive letter and path.

    Follow the on-screen prompts.

    If the devices are not listed, shut down the computer to the power off. Wait a minute. Restart and check again.
