I have a screen saver application (Google Photo Sideshow) that appears to look at the Local AppData value stored in the user's Shell Folders registry key when it sets its cache folder, which in turn is the location of the XML file that tells it where to get the photos. (Sorry, I know that was convoluted). Anyway, I also wanted to set the screen saver for the Windows login screen in the HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT registry section.My problem is that the values stored in the Shell Folders for this .DEFAULT profile keeps changing. Sometimes they point to C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\... and sometimes they change to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\... and sometimes the value just blanks out completely.Can anyone tell me what controls the values stored in this folder and why they keep changing? The User Shell Folders paths all stay constant with %USERPROFILE%\... I've been searching for this answer for weeks and cannot seem to find someone that can tell me why these values change, according to what rules they changes, etc...Any help would be greatly appreciated... :)Travis McGee1 person got this answerI do too
