Special folders such as My Documents, Desktop and so on can be changed to any other location from that set by the default installation:

Navigate to:
HCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\UserShell Folders

Open this Registry key and edit the full path for each special folder with the corresponding new path.
