I just got a new laptop with Win7. I've used Vista a little bit at work, but otherwise I am a WinXP user and know little about the newer Windows. To get to the chase, my question is, is it possible to create my own alternative pair of 64bit/x86 folders and use them as the destinations for all the new software I will be installing? In other words, they will simply be two new folders with different names (and they will start empty). I'm sure it's possible but would there any downside to doing this?
What would be really cool is if I could get Win7 to treat these potential new folders the same as it does with the default ones, where 64bit programs default to one of them, while 32 bit programs default to the other. Is this possible?
If you're wondering why I am interested in doing this, it would be purely for organizational purposes.
