Hi, Zygy.
You might not have noticed that WinXP's "My Documents" has been renamed to
simply "Documents" in Vista. And it's not simply a name change. The
organizational structure has changed. You should now find your documents in
C:\Users\Zygy\Documents. When you click Start, you should see Documents in
the right-hand column of the Start Menu, under your user name. Click that
to see a list of your documents, or right-click Documents, then click
Explore to open that folder in Windows Explorer.
The name "My Documents" still exists, but only as a "Junction", pointing to
the new location, for the benefit of legacy applications that have not yet
been updated to the new scheme.
