Somehow the "My Pictures" folder became corrupted. I have recreated the folder pursuant to Help instructions except when
download photos (from internet via "save image" option) or through my digital software they seem to dissappear. The "search" feature says they are exactly where I put them but when I go to access them the foldrer is empty. Any enlightenment would be greatly appreciated. Please EMail reply
Thnx in advance

Thanks a "Mil" but please confirm the punctuation....is there a space
between 1132 & mydocs and a comma after dll........
Thanks again.

EL (L) not One (1) and yes the punctuation is critical. For the last part case is important too. Delete your folder that you made as it may not touch it if it exists. This is what happens when you log on the first time and your specific folders are made.

Tried it all per your instructions w/no result...When I enter the info
in the "run" dialogue nothing happens...I also notice that the view
image (r/mouse command to strip image from text) is giving me a blank
screen (ex: .Gif image 1 x 1 pixels) ?!?!?! Getting ready to give up ):(
 
No message means it worked. Also try

regsvr32 shimgvw

Type regedit in Start Run
navigate to
Look for My Pictures or CommonPictures

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
and here
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\UserShell Folders

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
