Hide Windows shell extension folders
One of the most annoying things to me are the extra 'top-level' Windows folders: 'My Documents', 'Desktop', 'My Computer', 'My Network Places'. Could TrackerV3 hide them, so you see only the actual drives, a la old Windows versions?
test everything. hold on to the good.

Re: Hide Windows shell extension folders
It was a LOT of work to get these things going and now you want to hide them... users!
It'd be very easy to hide 'My Documents', 'Desktop', and 'My Network Places', but the top node ('My Computer' in TV3, deliberately different from Explorer as you will have noticed) I'm afraid will have to stay: a tree needs a root.
Let's see what the poll brings up...

I've realised that the part that annoys me is how if I close TrackerV3 when in the 'My Documents' folder or one of it's subdirectories, when I re-open it, the view is in the root/extra top-level 'My Documents' folder, whether or not I was viewing 'My Documents' in root or under a drive letter.
Does anyone like this behaviour?
If this were fixed / an option given to turn this off, I wouldn't much mind the existence of the extra top-level folders.
