Re: My Document Folder has wrong association

Hi,

Click Start, Run and type:

%userprofile%\My Documents

And, then access the "My Documents" folder from Start menu. Does it lead to the same path as above?

I have a peer to peer network set up in small office. Has worked fine for
years. All computers running XP Professional.
Recently installed new laptop computer to the network.
I shared my "My Documents" folder on the LAPtop.
I then accessed this folder from my DESKtop.
Now when I go into my DESKtop and drill down to "c:\Documents and
Settings\My User Name\" the My Documents folder is somehow pointed to the
"my documents" on my LAPtop!
The other icons in this directory work correctly i.e. "Desktop" points to
the correct desktop.

I have no idea how this mis-association happened or how to fix it.
Any help would be appreciated!
Lyle
