My Documents My Pictures, My Music etc Folders from Shell won't respond

[Mark]

I ran registry cleaner recently and I just tried to access these folders
from the shell on my desktop and after a few seconds of the hour glass,
nothing happens. I went into my registry and I did not see these
entries in
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User
Shell Folders].

I think I need to create these entries or is there a better automated
way?

Thanks

in any your have you tried a restore?
also, there is a backup of the registry in
the windows config folder and you
could probably copy that key into
you current registry...
