Hello
Out of curiosity I tried to run the snippet which Alexandre Bergel
posted yesterday under the name ‘Script of the day’. It failed, but
nothing to do with the script itself. The problem is that it fails on
the line: ‘FileLocator documents allChildren.’ The debugger message is
“Directory does not exist: Path ‘C:’ / ‘Users’ / ‘Peter’ /
‘Documents’ / ‘My Music’.” Tracing through the debugger output, I
conclude that the same error will arise with the directories ‘My
Pictures’ and ‘My Videos’. One thing these directories have in common
is that they are empty, so as a test I copied a small text file into
‘My Music’, but this made no difference.
I have a vague recollection that ‘My Music’ etc., although presented
by Windows as conventional directories, are in fact some sort of
pseudo-directories constructed as required by Windows Explorer, but I
am not too sure about this. Could this be an explanation of the problem?
Yup you are correct. The actual directory will be "C: /
Users/Peter/Music" on windows 7.
