My Computer Icon Displays the My Documents Folders of Another User

[Guest]

Hello,

I found kb for this question, but I have some problem.

All user account used the same my documents folder. But only one user will
show the folder name "My Documents", Other User show the folder name
"username's documents".

In this kb, user's documents saved in different path.
But my case, all of Computer user used same Folder. It displays the My
Documents folders of another user.
Sometimes it does not display this folder name. It displays "My documents"
Thanks

Shared Documents gets its name from the desktop.ini file.

Shared Documents is the name if desktop.ini is OK, if desktop.ini is missing
or messed up it's just Documents.

The desktop.ini file may be missing or messed up.

Detailed instructions here on how to fix or create a desktop.ini file for
the Shared Documents folder...

My Documents also gets its name from the desktop.ini, otherwise it's just
Documents.
