Is it possible to relocate the Fonts folder? I'd like to share one common folder between multiple Windows installations (and also make recovering all my fonts on a full OS reinstall easier), and not have duplicate copies of these fonts in several places.

Thanks :p
 
I haven't heard of a way to move it...doubt it's even possible :(
 
AFAIK that is one system folder that CANNOT be moved.
 
I'm not competely sure, but maybe changing the reg keys "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" and "HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders" would do the trick.
Always backup before messing with the registry.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
