Renaming:Documents and Settings/Program Files/Windows Folder

Post by yvonney »

Hi ALL Great to be here....
when I have used XP I have always done an nLite install and renamed the Documents and Settings folder to USERS
Windows folder to SYSTEM
Program Files to APPLICATIONS
Common Files to COMMON

I don't think this is easily done or even possible in WINE

Is it??

Thank you!!!

it's possible, but I can't imagine why you'd want to go to the trouble.

Please don't do it. Just use the way it is.

wasn't planning to do. Just interested in flexibility of WINE. I find possibilities motivating and they also add a lot of confidence. Though don't need added confidence for WINE..... amazing and wonderful it is!
Thank you!
