Everything outside there is considered system or program files and will be rolled back, so if you don't want that and don't want to relocate documents as intended for some reason, you would have to back them up. It's better to use the intended folders for storage.

Separate partition. Separate hard drive. With system restore for that partition disabled entirely. And it still did that.
