Title: The Order of things ...
Post by: CameronY on October 22, 2007, 06:21:49 AM

Hi All,

I'm not sure how long ago - perhaps two to three weeks.  I noticed that when I started Explorer the order of "My Docs", "My Comp", and "My Network Places" had changed.

Now "My Comp" is atop of the directory tree ahead of "My Docs" (Refer to attached image).

Does anyone know why this occurred and how to fix ??

Cheers,
Cameron

Did you use PowerToys XP to get those (to me) silly names for My Computer and My Documents? If so, I expect that's how they got switched. Check the First Icon setting under Desktop in PowerToys XP.

Anyhow, Powertoys should put it right.

Many thanks for the suggestion contrex, you were right on the mark.   ;)
Can't even recall making the change.
Again, many thanks.
