Level: Recommended For Novice Users

Description:
In any windows application, open dialog permits you to go to my recent documents, desktop, my documents and my computer in places bar. You can add your own folders to this bar for quick access. But this setting also lets you remove the new features of windows 2000 professional. For this, go to start > run menu, enter regedit and navigate to the first registry path listed below. If the subkey \currentversion\policies\comdlg32\placesbar is not present, create it as explained below. Then, create an expandable string value name place0, if this value does not exist. Now, right-click and modify the value data box with the exact path to enable the setting. Paths with environment variables are also valid, for example %userprofile%\desktop, which will default to your desktop directory. If you want to add more than one folder then create new expandable entries with place1, place2, place3 and place4 and add the exact path. Click ok and close the registry editor. After logoff or system restart, changes take effect. Note: if you apply this tweak, you will lose the default shortcuts inside the places bar (e.g. Desktop). To restore this default look, delete all entries. When editing the registry it is highly recommended to run a quick scan for optimization, you can test your system now for free.
