My Documents/My Pictures Have Issues!!!

[dmcgibbo]

My My Documents folder shows the background for the My Videos or My Music (either a filmstrip or a music note) and the My Pictures shows no background. In My Pictures, I can't choose Filmstrip view anymore.

So what can I do to repair these files since they aren't customizable? Thanks

Try going to the Customize tab in the Properties of the Folder and see all available changes that can be made.

the special folders don't have that customization tab that's why i posted this. however, i wrote a little registry patch and refreshed all of the folder customizations back to 0 and it is now fixed
