If they are intact, open Registry Editor and goto: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\UserShell Folders HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders In both the locations, look for the value "Favorites" in the right-pane and post the contents here. -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP www.mvps.org/sramesh2k Free Online Virus Scanners and Security Tests: http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k/Scanners.htm My Favorites links are suddenly missing.
