Hi, Gene,



I agree that you should be able to get to a program or file quickly. In windows 10 you have to go through the file explorer to find a program or file now. Now I can't even hit the start menu and type "downloads" in the search box like I used to. I have to go through file explorer.

But none of this should matter. The point of Windows is to allow you to get to things like this very quickly not dependent on knowing where they are. In Windows 7, I can't discuss how Windows 10 is organized, if you open the start menu, then tab once, you are in a list. You can down arrow and find documents and music. You can also use first letter navigation and type d or m.



If the start menu isn't working properly, you may need to know where they are to open them using Windows Explorer. I don't know how many Windows 7 users know about this, and I also suspect that Windows 10 has a similar interface.

In Windows 7 at least, Favorites, Downloads, Documents, Music,
Pictures, Videos and some others are under the user account folder.

I believe my music, video & photo files are in:

With the last directory name changed for video or photos.

Documents sub-directory appears to be at the same level as downloads or
possibly a sub-folder of downloads.

Hi

This was the case in earlier Windows versions but I think since Windows
7, Documents, Music, Pictures and Videos folders are stored in the
c:\Users\UserName folder where “Username” is the name of the Windows
account. These are also the default folders in the Libraries of the
same names, so if you configure File Explorer to “Library view”, they
appear in the list when you press Windows+e, so are easily accessible.

Cheers

Chris

Hi,

Did you try pressing the Windows key and then typing “my music”? It
should be under documents and then music. Famous last words.

Thanks,

Jim

*Subject:* [NVDA] cannot get to my music file folder

Hi, everyone,

I do not know why but for some weird reason I cannot find my music file
folder. I do not know if it is something in NVDA or not. When I do a
search for music and hit enter, all it shows is groove music but nothing
else. This did not happen in earlier versions of windows. I called the
Microsoft disability line and they could not fix the problem either. Why
is this happening?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Rosemarie
