I'll try that.

According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549

Under...
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders

....there should be.....

Recent REG_EXPAND_SZ %USERPROFILE%\Recent

Problem, the "Recent" entry keeps disappearing when I reboot my home (WinXP
Pro SP3) PC.

I've also confired the Registry entery for Recent IS there on my work PC
running the same WinXP Pro SP3.


Note, the Recent entry IS under "Shell Folders" but with full path to
my profile Recent folder.

(For those who bother to note, yes, this is a repost of the question, but
nobody answered the 1st post.)
