    Hello,
    Not offen i post anything... but now i got a question..

    Windows 11 insist on giving me a default saving path every time like txt files in Documents ets...EVERY TIME!!! How can i set this to "desktop" instead... without manualy change path
    Anyone know some fix to turn this off or letting me set a custom path and not just a drive... I could install custom apps aka non MS... but trying to keep this down to a minimum of things installed(OLD users share this computer so KISS is a must).

    With KISS i am thinking like open notepad, type away and save it to desktop without browsing aroud and getting lost in the filesystem...
