folders sending me crazy

[Guest]

i have a folder in my documents that i keep all my stuff (music, pics,
documents) in. they are all organised into separate folders within that big
folder.

why oh why do they keep changing what sort of folder they are? i set the
folder with documents in it to be a 'documents' folder. two days later, it
has decided to be a music folder, while the 'music' folder has decided to
become a pictures folder. why is this happening? what can i do to stop it?

Hi,

WindowsXP has a limitation on the number of customized folder settings,
after it hits it (at around 400), it starts forgetting or altering some.
What you need to do is to increase this limit, download and run this tweak
