similar (?) My Pix problem

[denno]

Hello

Couple days ago lots of picture folders apparently disappeared from My Pictures. Can't see them in Windows Explorer or Picasa. If I do a search for the folders, they turn up and are reported as being where they belong. Any thoughts? Including maybe how to reassign them to another folder?

Only thing I can think of I did "funny" was remove the plugged-in camera, possibly -- but not certainly -- without proper protocols.

On the other hand, other funky things have been happening in my computer: ctrl-alt-delete brings up the expected window, but with no buttons to minimize or close it. (I have to open several copies and then I can go to the bottom of my screen and "Close Group.") And so forth.

Have run Ad-Aware, Spybot, Norton One-Button, and Norton Antivirus and rebooted.

TIA,

Denno

When you do a search and find the folders, right click on them, click properties and make sure they don't have hidden or system properties checked.

The task manager issue can probably be solved by double clicking on the border.

They are "read Only." But----now that I look carefully at the location string, seems they have gotten into a sub-level of My Documents called "NetHood." Dunno how this happened, but presumably I can simply drag the My Pictures folder up a couple levels to where it is easier to navigate to.

Yes, it was, thank you.

Thanks --- you got me looking more carefully at things so I could see the solution.
