Favorites stuck under All Users

For some reason my favorites only work out of All Users.
I have found the registry key:
HKEY_CU\SW\MS\WIN\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
and have changed it back to my only other account on the
computer. However, when I reboot it changes back to All
Users and until I move my favorites back to All Users
then I can not see them.

I will type more if that is not enough information for
you. All I want is to see Favorites from both my profile
and All Users in IE and I can not seem to get that done.

Thanks in advance...
 
Hi Eric,

1. Create a common Favorites folder, preferrably outside a Userprofile path.
2. Under each user account, alter the Favorites shell folder value in the
registry:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders

3. Double-click Favorites value in the right-pane and set it's Path.

Regards,
