Thread: My Documents gone missing...

  1. #1
    Hi,

    When I click on My computer.. I see my My Drives.. C: D: E: Etc. and also I can see Shared Documents folder but I can't see My (name) Documents Folder!!!! It has gone??
    I can see the other logon on this computer's (Name) Documents so where has mine gone and how can i get it back? And why would it have gone?

    I can get to my documents via C: drive etc. but thats the long way round

    Thanks in Advance

    Could be a tweakUI setting.
    It has options for hiding and showing certain documents folders in my computer.
    Even if it's already ticked maybe unticking, applying, then reticking might work.

    I don't know 100 % over the last two years or so . Guess you could say I stole too . But speaking as a file sharer I like to link to the source out of respect ?

    Don't kid yourself tho its all about the Benjamins nothing more nothing less .

    no i ment, that "they" the tweakxp admin stole tweaks from their members without giving them credit, hence most of the vital members left.
