[Bug 26894] New: Support windows 7 user folders?
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26894 Summary: Support windows 7 user folders? Product: Wine Version: 1.3.18 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: dank(a)kegel.com Windows 7 changed the folders in c:/users/$USERNAME around a bit. My Documents is now just a link to the new folder Documents Application Data is now just a link to the new folder AppData/Roaming Local Settings is now just a link to the new folder AppData/Local Well-behaved apps that use CSIDL_PERSONAL to get at "My Documents" will work regardless, but users or badly behaved apps might start expecting the shorter directory names sometime, so we might want to switch to the new names sometime for new wineprefixes. I'll attach a demo patch that just changes Wine's shell32 to use the new locations; we would also need to add symlinks somewhere so that apps which reference the old locations keep working, as Windows does. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

I did the linking work and when reviewing it with Alexandre he felt is was unnecessary. How important do you feel the linking of the folders is? We could just change them for newly created wine prefix. The folder locations are registered in the registry so updating the default locations to the windows 7 versions should not affect existing wineprefix. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
