I'm not saying you can turn Libraries off. I'm saying that Libraries runs alongside normal folders at the same time. Have you used Win7? Your suggestion that libraries "destroys" the folder structure leads me to believe that you haven't. It does nothing to the folder structure; the structure remains intact. The potential negatives? There are none. And if you have used Win7 and think I'm wrong, please explain more clearly than you have already the "potential negatives" of Libraries. I'm all ears; criticizing me for abstract failings is a mug's game. Let's work on this specific failure you allege.
