    I'm running PD 13 and am doing a fresh VM running Windows 7 Home Premium.
    On my Mac, I have changed the location of my Documents folder and created a symlink back to Documents in my Home directory so everything still behaves the same.
    But once Windows is installed in PD, it's defaulting to have My Documents point to the old Documents folder (which I renamed to Documents Archive but am keeping until I'm absolutely certain I don't need it any longer).
    I would like Windows to point to my actual Documents directory on the Mac, just like the Downloads folder in Windows, shares the Downloads folder on the Mac side. Is it possible to change the path Windows is looking at for My Documents?
