Change Location Of Win system Files

This Registry Hack will show you how to Change Location Of Windows Installation Files. If you installed XP from a CD and then copied the installation discs to your hard disk, use this hack to change the default installation folder that XP will look for when it searches for additional setup files later. Just open Regedit(START>>RUN>>Type REGEDIT)



Navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows \CurrentVersion\Setup



Change the String Value called SourcePath to one specifying the path to where the XP setup files are now stored. From now on XP will first look in this new location. No more of you having to click ?browse? and selecting.This is for win xp. Back up your registry before you do it(click here)
