stray Desktop.ini

[Timothy Daniels]

A Desktop.ini file has appeared in My Recent Documents folder,
but I don't know its original location, so I can't return it there, and
I'm warned of dire consequences if I try to delete it. Can somebody
tell me where its belongs? I run XP Pro/SP3, and here are the
contents of the stray Desktop.ini file:

[.ShellClassInfo]
[email protected],-12692
IconFile=%SystemRoot%\system32\SHELL32.dll
IconIndex=-21
[email protected],-12691

When you change folder settings (icon, make it read only ...) this file
Desktop.ini will appear. It can be located in any folder.
