Recreating Shell Folders

entumd · 08-January-04, 01:52 PM

Hi,

I have this problem, I'm trying to use Itunes on my xp machine, but the installation keeps failing because it couldnt find "my music" folder. I can't find it either, so what i did was make a new my music folder and then went into the registry and pointed my music to the location of the my music folder i just created. This still doesn't work. Is recreating a new shell folder more indeoth than what I just did? If so how do I do this?
Thanks

Did you put the My Music folder in My Documents? Itunes might look for the folder there regardless of registry entries.

Whip out Tweak UI , and go to "My Computer->Special Folders" Define my music as whatever you'd like.
