Try right clicking on the 'Pictures' link and click 'Properties.' Under the
'Location' tab, you may select a directory.

Thanks but this is my problem, there is no locations tab on the pictures
button and what comes up under properties is all blank.

Regards

My apologies, but I'm going on the assumption that the Locations tab is
accessible. Best wishes,

Re: Start Menu - Pictures Button does nothing

Okay, I'm having the exact same problem, except for with the music folder instead of pictures. When I click on the properties of the folder, there's nothing there though, just a blank properties page. There is no tab for location or any other tab at all. How can I fix this? It's making my itunes run real screwy as well..

Re: Start Menu - Pictures Button does nothing

sorry, another update:

I found the registry editor and the music folder was linked to the wrong place and I corrected it. After restarting the registry is still listed correctly, but the button on the start menu is still not functioning and there are no tabs if you click properties - its still blank. Is there any way I can fix this?

I also need help with this, I know this is old, But can someone else help me?

There is nothing under the location field. Nothing editable that is.

Thanks,
Gergy009
