I did a restore using Microsoft Backup to My Documents and when it created
folders for my music, videos, and pictures they were named "Jack's Music"
etc. instead of "My Music" etc. Why did this happen? Is there anyway to
change them back to "My Music" etc. Everything still appears to work for
now - WMP still finds the library under "My Music" even though the folder
isn't named that anymore in Windows Explorer. What is going on?

Question: One of my special folders (e.g. My Documents, My Music, My
Pictures, Shared Documents, etc) has lost its name, lost its icon, or has
the wrong Task Pane template, how can I get it back?

Answer: This problem can occur if the hidden desktop.ini file in the special
folder is corrupt or missing. Here are the steps to fix this problem:
