Disabling Libraries in Windows 7

This is driving me nuts, and has to go:(

Found this solution which seems idiot proof, does anyone recommend it or even a simpler way if possible.

Why? If they bother you just dont use them?

Personally I have never used My Documents or libraries. I have always set up a separate partition for my data. I then set the default folder for saving to the appropriate folder on my data partition, in the options of whatever software I use or develop.

That way you can simply ignore libraries.

In addition it means I can image my OS partition and restore it if any tweeks or changes I may make go wrong, without affecting my data.

If I do that will copies not automatically appear in the libraries, it just annoys me:D if that happens.

If you only have one folder for each library set up, problems solved
