2 questions on Windows CD Burning & Remote Desktop woes :S

[Guest]

3 questions:

1) I've only got around 200MB free space on my C:\ and I really cannot free
anymore up. However I've got 3 GB free space in my D:\ . I do not have time
to uninstall / reinstall things just to free up space in my C:\ .

I want to CD burn using Windows CD Burning. I notice that when one drags
files into their CD-R drive it really gets copied into a folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\CDBurning (or something)

Is there anyway to tell Windows that you want to use another folder, like
D:\ for CD Burning temp folder?


2) Is there any way I can move a program folder say, C:\Program Files\WinZip
or C:\Program Files\Adobe into D:\Program Files and have Windows
intelligently set/update all the registry configuration associated with that
program? etc.


3) I have been having problems getting MS Remote Desktop Assistant to work.
I am on a flat LAN network and I believe my flat mates router has the ports
blocked for incoming. What are all the Remote Desktop ports I need to open so
that everything runs smoothly. Plus am I correct that the default/1st user
account with no password cannot be used to log into a Remote Desktop?

The standard Remote Desktop port is 3389. You will need to set up a
port-forwarding link from the outside to your PC for this port.

Right drag the folder to the location you want and choose Move.

Not really anything that works reliably. Uninstall and reinstall.

Does this really work?
