Please, dont save **** in "Documents and Settings"

I dunno, it makes it easier to find .cfg files and it keeps your saves in a safe place away from the main install folder.

Doesn't bother me any

Easier to find? how is it any easier than having them in the install directory?

Also... safe place?, when something breaks, it uses to be the OS partition, if you have to format, the saves, config, screens, etc... are precisely what you lose.

Can't count how many stuff I lost because its stored in obscure folders within D&S

That's it, everyone just switch to Macs! Nice and registry free! :p
Where should I put the rainbow flag then?

Yeah, my HD just took a poop, and I had to reinstall everything. I've got all my data backed up weekly, so that wasn't an issue.

It was the settings for all my applications and games that I lost, if they WERE NOT in the Users folder.

So I hope it does go in there. Maybe have a separate "My Saved Games (and settings)" under Users.
