As always, thanks in advance for any help.

I have a fresh install of Vista Ultimate. I have a second Hard Drive in the
system and I wanted to move the VIDEOS folder to that drive. I right clicked
on the VIDEOS folder and changed the location. However, I changed it to the
Root Drive (E without a folder there. Now the VIDEOS folder is gone, and I
cannot restore it back to it's previous location. It is not on the C or E
drives or anywhere else. Any ideas?

Thanks Always,
Steve

Under the UserName folder ON YOUR DESKTOP, not under 'C:\Users', do you
have an icon for your E: drive that has a 'Location' tab? If so, that's
your
video folder, use the 'Restore Default' button on that tab to recreate the
default folder.

If not, try opening the 'Run' dialog, WinKey+R, and typing:

shell:my videoEnter

If the folder has been deleted, that will recreate it.

If you get an error saying "Windows cannot find 'shell:my video'...", then
open the registry editor, WinKey+R regedit, and navigate to:

"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders"

In the right-hand pane, look for a value named 'My Video', if it doesn't
exist, create it by right-clicking & selecting 'New' - 'Expandable string
value'. Either way, edit its data to read: "%USERPROFILE%\Videos"

Log off & log back on, then open the Run dialog and type:

shell:my videoEnter

and you should be back in business.
