    Missing "My Documents" icon


    I use Win 7, and my "My Documents" icon is missing. I know the folder is there, but because I cannot put my documents there due to the missing icon, I have had to create a different folder called "Documents." But I notice some of my files go to either one.

    Can someone here please tel me how to restore the "My Documents" icon so I can move all my documents there?

    Thanks.

    Hello Kahill,

    You could do all of the steps in OPTION TWO of the tutorial below to hopefully restore your "My Documents" folder afterwards.
