Does not work properly.

That reg path is very obsolete. How about right click MyDocs and selecting
properties. It has a box to change the path.

The expandable keys in "User Shell Folders" override the static keys in
"Shell Folders". Always change the key in "User Shell Folders" if the
key appears in both places.

"Shell Folders" is for backward compatibility with apps that can't
expand reg keys.

But use the GUI to move My Documents with a right-click.
