Re: Moving MUD from ~/Documents to ~/Library

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



Thanks for the response.

I had already done that.

What I would like to do is not see the MUD folder in my Documents -
neither the actual, nor an alias. It was doable in v.X

Why is moving it to ~/Library a bad choice? (just curious)
