Hello everyone, got a new issue I've never seen before. When opening Documents I can see all my normal folders/files, but when using Computer I have almost no folders/files available and a search is started (see the attached image for a comparison, and note that the search never finishes).

UPDATE--Spoke too soon, even using Documents sometimes turns up empty file lists.

Additionally, File Icons seem to randomly change (from what they are supposed to be, to 'blank white paper' icons, and back again).

I've never seen this before and any ideas on what happened / how to fix it would be greatly appreciated.
