254433 2004-07-26 01:02:00 hi ya.


thank you for your links, thank you for you help too.


after finally locating the send to folder, i find it has less things named in it that what shows up with right click?

how does this happen? i have 2 send to CD > D : ???

i was going to remove one but it only shows one in the folder, not 2 as right click shows.

how can i fix this????


this is not a good thinking problem for a monday....

254434 2004-07-26 01:49:00 It is safe to delete one of these as they are only short cuts on my machine i have four users and each sendto folder has different shortcuts in them. Click my computer then your c drive and goto documents and settings and have a look in each users send to folder to see what i mean.
Of course that's if you have other users.

You can't see them because they are in different "user accounts" folders . What you see while you are logged in on your User account would be different to what the other user accounts see when they right click and view the Send To menu .

If you do a search for "SendTo" you will get more than one folder in the results . Double click on each one at a time (use the Back button to return to the list) and you can see that each folder is different to the others . You are now free to delete or add shortcuts as you see fit . ;-)
