    Using Windows 7, how can I prevent a location from automatically being added to a library.
    Say I have a video file that has pictures for fanart etc. any time I save a file in the video file it is automatically added to my pictures library. So I am constantly having to remove locations from my libraries. Probably a simple solution but I have been unable to figure it out.

    removing locations is no problem, the only problem is they are put right back in the library any time a file is modified in a folder even though the folder has been removed from the library before.

    Don't create files and folders inside folders you're added to the libraries. Pretty easy. For example I created a directory called Projects in my user folder for all of my in progress graphics files, instead of using the Pictures directory.
