| | Pictures folder in Personal folder Hi, I have a problem which is a little bit odd, I somehow managed to delete Pictures folder in Personal folder (completly-trash bin was empty, and no, it is not transfered to another folder). Now the problem is than all shoutcuts are not working, and I can not get the old Pictures fodler back, I can do new fodler but it is not the same. Any ideas how to creat the original Personal Pictures folder. Thanks very much for helping! |

Maybe doing a System Restore to a time before the folder was deleted would be worth a try.

Any ideas how to creat the original Personal Pictures folder. Thanks very much for helping! Not to worry. In the Start menu, type "shell:My Pictures" (no quotes) and press Enter. This should restore the folder. See: Shell Command If the folder appears as a yellow folder instead of the green-blue color, then see: Personal User Shell Folders Shawn |
