Redirect your My Documents Pictures and Music to a NAS or Network path in Windows 10

Problem:
Rather than having all machines in my household having an individual instance of My Documents Music and Pictures I wanted to point them all to my NAS unit over a network share.

Solution:
As this is a home not a corporate setup we have no access to group policy so the easiest way to do this is to add the registry entries manually. All you need to do is create the below registry keys for each of the folders you want redirected and then enter you path.
