Weird Windows XP Duplicate Folder Tree

why does win xp explorer have such a weird folder structure. There seem to be doubles of everything. My Computer My Music My Documents these and other My's are at the top of the folder tree and in the user settings/local/etc as well. I dont like duplicates of everything. Are these duplicates or just a mirror of the Documents/settings/user folders.

I like the old win 98se explorer style and not have my files buried deep many subfolders down in a giant folder tree.

Check this page and see if offers any help with reconfiguring your "My Documents" folder.


My Documents in WinXP

If that doesn't help, you can try Xteq X Setup and see if that offers any "hacks" to change the default settings.

I hope something here will help!
