Hello, Want to change the Media play music location from \My Documents\My
Music\ to something like "c:\music " using either a regedit file or push it
out via a group policy. Don't want my users with roaming profiles pushing
music up to my server taking up drive space. Is this possible?

There is an ADM file for Windows Media Player somewhere... I'm sorry I
can't remember where it is off the top of my head. You can merge that
into your Group Policy Objects and use it to manage media player.

I can't remember if the setting you are looking for is in there, but
it's a place to check.

Good luck.
