Help! I funked up my "shared documents" folder - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

GreasyP · 05-12-2003, 10:09 AM

I have XP Pro and Mandrake 9.1. I was messing around in Mandrake, trying to mount "c:\documents and settings\all users\documents" as "/home/all" but it caused problems so I stopped mounting it that way. But the shared documents folder seems to have lost some of its properties in XP now. It's now just called "documents" instead of "shared documents" in all windows, dialog boxes, etc. It doesn't have the special icon I gave it anymore. Whenever I move, delete, rename, etc. a file in the folder, I have to hit F5 before I can see the changes (it's not updating the explorer window). Lots of weird stuff like that. Any ideas?
