  2. In the left pane, locate and then click the following registry subkey:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
  3. In the right pane, right-click CD Burning, and then click Modify.
  4. In the Value data box, type the new location that you want to use to burn CDs, and then click OK.
