Deleting folders off desktop
Hi
I am running vista home premium 64 bit, with all updates complete. I have a placed a folder (contacts) on my desktop that I placed there for temporary use, I am now finished updating and backing it up, so I want to delete it. I can delete it, but then when I restart the computor it is there again. I have deleted all the files in the folder, but how do I delete the folder permanently off my desktop. Thanks.

Reassign the contacts folder in your contacts software. -- Gene E. Bloch letters0x40blochg0x2Ecom

I'm sorry I don't know what you mean by that, I tried to use the "send
to" but that didn't work either, so how do I reassign in WLM? "Gene E. Bloch" wrote in message ...

I don't use the product, but apparently it regenerates its contacts folder
after you delete it. My homework assignment for you: Go into its settings and figure out where it's being told where its contacts folders is. Change it.

Deleting folders off desktop
thanks...... guess I failed.............. being fairly new to the technical
side of things, not really sure what exactly I am looking for or where to look, I did find lots of files with the name on them, but don't know which one to deal with or what to do with it. Thanks anyway "Gene E. Bloch" wrote in message ... I don't use the product, but apparently it regenerates its contacts folder after you delete it.
