Hi,
I had relocated my Documents and Pictures to folders on a separate drive (E:DATA), using the techniques mentioned in the tutorials here and elsewhere. Everything worked okay.
Yesterday I moved my OS onto a new hard drive and the link to the Documents and Pictures got messed up. I think this because the letter for the DATA drive was changed to G:DATA. My other personal folders (the ones I never modified) are okay. Right-clicking on the Documents and Pictures folders reveals them to be "normal" folders. The location tabs are missing.
I checked the registry in the user shell folders and modified the Pictures and Personal to G:\documents and G:\Pictures. Rebooted, but still no luck. The folders don't link to the DATA drive, and nothing has changed in terms of the location tab missing.
Tonight I will try the shell commands as mentioned in one of the tutorials, but if that doesn't work (not sure if it is applicable to my situation) then what next?
Thanks!
