how to change location of user folders in Windows 7

Dear Experts

I have Windows 7.

1)
how to change all home folders of a user to another location?
how to do it most efficienty?
Shall I do it manually folder by folder (desktop, contacts, coookies, downloads, my video etc.) or is there a quicker way to do it?
I found a registry key which seem to hold these data:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Sofware\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders

2) how to change default location of "users" directory so that whenever a new user is created, its directories are created eg. under Z:\usr and not on C:

thanks!
