Under "My Network Places" in Windows Explorer, two folders which I know are
shared (from looking at Admin Tools - Shared Folders) are no longer visible.
One of them ("My Received Files') I set up recently, and it has not appeared
in "My Network Places" since. The other ("My Pictures" ) was there until
today, but when trying to correct the first problem I somehow managed to
delete it.

I understand these are only shortcuts and that all I have to do is put the
shortcut back into the folder "My Network Places". I think previously, I
just opened the folder "Entire Network" and created a shortcut from the
relevant folder in there.

But I think I may have used too many Registry tweaks, and not noted
(remembered) what I did when, because the folder "Entire Network" is not
shown any more. I may have used Ashampoo PowerUp XP to deselect "Show Entire
Network icon". So I went back into Ashampoo PowerUp XP, selected "Show Entire
Network icon" again, closed Ashampoo PowerUp XP and restarted the PC. But
nothing changed.

Does anyone know:
How to get the folder "Entire Network" back?
How to put folders into "My Network Places"?

Thanks


I have
