Solved "This item was not found" error

[BigV]

Hello All,

Everytime I want to create / move a folder I get the same error even after a fresh install:
"Screenshot in Dutch"

I got 2 Disks in my Laptop:
1) SSD Vertex 2
2) WD Caviar Black
The problem occurs on both of them:


I did the following things to make the SSD work beter:

- Disabled Services: Disabled Service List

- Disable Indexing: Foto --> Only on SSD

- Disable defragmentation Service & Schedule

- Disable Superfetch: Foto

- Disable Prefetch: Foto

- TRIM is enabled

Thanks to anyone who can Help!

Cannot find this item.
This item is no longer in C: \. Check the location of the item and try again.

Nieuwe Map = New Folder


I get these error when making a New Folder in "C:\"

Thanks for the very quick reply!

Look at this thread:

Renaming any folder produces "Could not find this item". - Microsoft Answers

There are reg fixes listed, make sure you get the right one x64

I finally got it.

I used the same solution for the similar issue in Windows Vista. Once i got to my company laptop, i exported this 2 registry keys.





HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\FolderDescriptions



Merged into my pc and voilà !!

The 'shell' command also works again (ex: shell: personal brings up the account folder)

I uploaded the reg file and you can get it here http://cid-fb5a28bc4a1cc9b6.skydriv...Folder^_fix^_win7^_x64/FolderDescriptions.rar

This is for Win7 x64. Use it at your own risk.

Suggest back up registry first as a precaution
