Renaming "Documents" folder

Compared to Windows XP, the Windows 7 "Documents" folder has an absolute boatload of stuff in it, some of which I may never use. I wanted to rename the folder to "My Documents," (as per XP) and then create a sub-folder named "Documents," which will contain only text files, making the whole thing neater and easier to search through.

First, you need to enable remote access by going to controlpanel/system/remote and click the radio button to enable remote access (either with or without NLA; I generally have never...

I have attempted to make restore points. The routine shows completed. But when I restart it says no restore points available. In working with some anti virus tools which claimed to make restore points, those also showed no evidence in the reboot and attempt to find them. Somehow I got past an access denied error to make any restore points manually in Win7. So multiple problems exist....

I'm not sure if this is the right category, but I could really use someone who could baby-step me through the steps to moving my personal folders(documents, pictures, videos, etc) to a data partition that I made for that purpose. I don't know exactly what I did wrong. I need 2 user names, and when I tried it for the first user (my husband) with some sample files, it moved over, but instead of...

Restarts After Outage Even Though Set Not To in BIOS ???

One of our Dell Optiplex 780 mini-tower machines has the bad and dangerous habit of restarting itself whenever the power goes out or is turned off for whatever reason. This is not at all very desirable behavior in this 3rd world rural area where the power may surge rapidly off and on several times during an outage. The machine is definitely set to remain OFF after an outage, yet it ignores...
