Windows Fax & Scan Won't Open
Move your Documents somewhere else.

I'm sorry, Mr. Valentine, that I didn't know the answer has been posted
many
times. Perhaps that is due to the fact that I've never visited this
discussion group before and thus was unaware of previous posts. Since I
apparently am ignorant enough to have already moved Documents to the root,
I
wonder if you might know the answer to the question: How can I point Fax
and
Scan to the new location of my Documents folder?

I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit version. I moved my
Documents
folder from the C:\ drive to my E:\ Data drive some time ago. When I
open
the Start Menu I now see "Data (E " on the button that used to read
"Documents." I moved the folder to E:\ by right-clicking on the
default
"Documents" label, entering Properties/Location and indicating that I
wanted
the new location to be E:\ . The system did this, placing the
Documents
folder under E:\. This has not caused any problem until I tried to
open
Windows Fax & Scan today and I received a dialog window reading:
"Windows
Fax
and Scan cannot run as it cannot access your documents folder. Please
ensure
that Windows Fax and Scan can access that folder." That's all very
logical,
but it doesn't tell me how to do this. How can I point Fax and Scan to
the
new location of my Documents folder?
