Today .tsk files and where they can be placed

Munk · 07-31-05, 02:01 PM

Does anyone know where else I can place the .tsk files other than "\Windows" and "\My Documents"? Some of the VGA ones are getting big at around 600K or more and I don't want to have it eating up valuable memory. When I place these files on an SD card or Compact Flash, it seems that there is no way to reference them.

Also, I noticed that you can delete the .tsk file after you select a theme and everything will still be ok. Windows extracts image files from the .tsk file and seems to use these rather than going to the .tsk every time.

Thanks in advance.

You can place them in a "my documents" folder in BIS if you delete the "ignore_my_docs" file. I suspect you can do the same to a SD card, but I haven't tried that.

You can place them in any "My Documents". If you have a SD or CF card, you can save them to the card and free up some main memory,
