Re: My Music regedit

My Music folder was lost (hard drive crash). I had moved it off the
C: drive to an other internal hard drive (320GB) for my 18,000 songs.
I tried to create it in default My Documents folder which is ok but
Windows doesn't recognize it.
I tried the Start - Properties - Start Menu - Customize - Advanced -
My Music - Display as a link but it still doesn't show in the start
menu and, more importantly, iTunes can't find it either.
I tried TweakUI but that doesn't list MY Music as one of the SPECIAL
FOLDERS that I can change the location to.
I have updated the registry but when I restart the computer my
registry is reset to not finding the My Music folder. Is there a key
I am missing? Is there a next step? Thanks in advance.

Hi Blue Rocks,

Try restting the Shell Folder paths using Ramesh's article.
