Missing "My Documents" Folder

Post by stebobibo »

This happened when I was trying to drag the folder to the catalog, to add a shortcut to the catalog. But when I did this, I let go of the mouse in the wrong place (when it was on top of another item, instead of a category). I noticed my mistake right away as a loading bar came up (even though I didn't know what was going to happen, I knew it wasn't right), so I clicked cancel. However, it has removed "My Documents" entirely. The weird thing is, it still exists in Windows explorer. How do I get it to re-appear? Thanks for your help!

I have no clue what happened... But did you try Xy's 'Undo' feature?
Even better, go to Edit Menu > Recent File Operations.

I was just playing around, and it does appear that you can undo Catalog operations (though maybe not all cat ops) (?)

Actually, I just fixed it myself. I had moved My Documents to My Music. To fix I just moved it back. The weird thing is, that I did press cancel, so I don't know why it continued the move. Also, it is still puzzling that Windows Explorer kept My Documents in the correct place. Thanks for your answer anyways, Kunkrel. I forgot about undo, so next time anything bad happens I'll try to remember about it.
