| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: duplicate documents folder It depends on where these duplicates are located. Make sure that both of them have the default location set for them. This tutorial will show you how. You will be moving them back to the default location. Personal User Shell Folders - Move Location Shawn |
