Using XP Home, SP3
Do I lose something if I put all my downloads in C:/Downloads instead
of C:/documents and setting/adminsistrator/something something/more
something/downloads?
Or if I use the directory c:/programs instead of c:/program files?
Or if I use c:/data/application-name instead of C:/documents and
setting/adminsistrator/application data......?
When I first got XP, I didn't read everything there was to read, and I
wanted it similar to win98 and 3.1, so I just used simple directory
names, with no internal spaces so I could easily type them in DOS. .
Also I'm the only one who uses my computer, so there's no need to
separate programs or data according to persona. (If someone needed
to use my computer, I have no secrets anyhow.)
BUTTTTTT!!!!!, since then I've wondered if the XP process of settling
checkpoints and restoring them ignores my directories while it would
backup and restore the directories I make a point not to use. Does
it?
Thanks
