Hallo,

I was chnaging the templates used by some of the folders
in My Pictures and this has for some reason altered My
Documents so that it uses thumbnails and shows picture
tasks instead of folder tasks in the side bar and also
has My Pictures photo background.

It's also happened to my root folder on d:/ (the drive
where my My Documents is too).

How do I fix them back the way they were? There is no
customise option for My Documents or the root folder of a
hard drive.

Help!
 
Did you by accident check or select "Apply to all" when
you changed your template? Folder Options>Restore Defaults
(General tab), or Veiw(tab)>Restore\Reset
 
I'm having a very similar problem on my computer - My
Documents has the Picture Tasks list, and My Pictures
just has the File & Folder Tasks list. I've clicked all
the "Restore Defaults"-like buttons I can find, but
nothing changes these folders back to their default
Templates. The "Reset all Folders" button even has a pop-
up that explicitly says that it will NOT restore tasks
panes. I would really like to fix this problem. Is
there anyone who knows where the Folder Tasks
associations are stored on the computer?
