Is it possible to change the order of the items in the "look in"
dropdownmenu in standard windows fileopen dialogs? "My Recent Documents"
appears first, Desktop second, My Computer third and so on. I would like to
move "My Recent Documents" to the bottom, but I can't figure out how. Also,
could you tell me which dll file controls the fileopen dialogs appearance?
Is it %windir%\system32\shell32.dll, or some other file? Actually, I would
like to remove this option completely from the dropdown menu, but it seems
to be somehow hardcoded, can't be changed in the registry. It doesn't even
have its own CLSID, as opposed to My Computer, My Documents or Network
Neighbourhood. Very strange.
