Moved Photo Folder

Hi,
A while back, to save space an a small HD, I changed the destination of the Vista start menu Photo Folder from the small HD to an external HD.
Since then, I have installed a very large HD and would like to return Vista to its orginal Photo Folder destination on the new HD.
I forgot how I made the first change and  have no idea how to reverse that change.
Thank you,
Dave

In Windows Explorer > click Libraries > Right click Pictures > select Properties

You can now add your original pictures folder back and remove the external one.

There are no Libraries in Vista.
Sorry there isn't either.  So used to Win7 now. :)

It can be done with a registry edit.

See the instructions in the link below.
