Re: Recent Folder

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Great, thanks very much, but...

I now have different problems: I lost administrator access to my own
account. I know I can create another with Admin access, but I think this
may have been due to having deleted the Recent folder. The new one is in a
different position and with a different name.

Can you help?

Thank you very much

The full location was c:\ Docs&Settings\'ME'\Recent

The folder may have been recreated somewhere else.
In Regedit, go to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders
double click on "Recent" (right pane),
copy the path to the clipboard,
and, in Windows Explorer, paste the path in the Address bar and hit ENTER.
