    Missing Folders

    Here is one! I have seen this 2 times now. i have had a folder on vista
    disappear only to find it in some bazar location this has happened on 2
    different computers.



    The strange thing is there was a shortcut to this folder on the desktop and
    still worked so I was baffled, when I right clicked the short cut it actually
    pointed to where the folder moved to. So Vista will move a folder to an
    obscure location and point the short cut to it. Anyone else run into this?

    Re: Missing Folders

    Could you provide some details?

    What is the name of the folder?
    What was the original location?
    Where was it moved to?
    Was the folder associated with a program?
