How does one control the list of roots/directires in the pulldown at the top of the JFileChooser ? I want to limit the user to a specific list of directories.

Have you tried using a FileFilter? I know that will work for the directories in the chooser, maybe it will also apply to the directories in the drop-down box.

I've tried the FileFilter but that appears to only apply to what is in the "file" box. I couldn't find anything related to "list of directories" that would fill in the pulldown.

I am sure I am horribly late, but the answer is: setFileSystemView(); you have to write your own FileSystemView, getRoots() of which returns the drives you want to return.
