| 722761 | 2008-11-25 02:26:00 | Hi Team, I've asked this once before but still haven't been able to solve the problem. The Recently used documents folder on my start menu has dissappeared. The folder is still in the documents and settings / user section of the win2K drive but no documents are getting put in there. I have run "repair windows" and tried the fixes suggested earlier, see :- pressf1.pcworld.co.nz but none of these worked. How can I fix this ? Cheers, Phil. |

| 722767 | 2008-11-25 20:39:00 | Oops! Should read posts through properly. :o Sorry about that. You've rebooted a few times since putting the documents folder back on the start menu? |

The "Documents" on the start menu remains empty. So does the "recent" folder in docs and settings. That is there are no shortcuts to the documents recently used. Cheers, Phil. |
