After a manic January filing self assessments - yes I am an accountant - I suddenly have a problem re finding files i have recently created in My Documents. If I try to open in my documents, or attach file Outlook, the system cannot find the file. The only way i can trace the file is in recent documents which holds a short cut to the folder in my documents. This is a new problem, and I cannot backup the files either as the external hard drive also cannot trace the files held in my documents.

Has anyone an idea why this is happening - help required quite urgently.
 
Can you right click on one of the working shortcuts in recent documents and then view the file source to see it it matches what you are opening in My Documents? It could be they are in another folder somewhere?

Can you see the icons of the files in My Documents, but they won't open?
