I'm in the same boat. If I change it manually and refresh, it usually will change, but it doesn't stay that way. I'm noticing more than a few folders that are like that....it's rather annoying! Joy

Thanks for all of your help, guys....I finally got it! When I went to change it manually through C:\Documents and Settings... I actually don't have a "My Recent Documents" folder listed. I have a "Recent", which I think is the same thing, and I customized that manually. Then after I went in and refreshed everything it worked. Thank you so much--it looks so great now! Have a nice holiday! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/sd_com/smiles/BigSmile.gif" border=0 ALIG
Strange. I was thinking perhaps it's something with my XP settings, but even playing around with that, I can't seem to change it. One a side note, how do you get such a new version? Are you not allowed to update to a newer version for free after you purchase it? Mine is only 3.11 (x86)... Thanks for your help; I guess I'll just have to deal with it Happy Holidays! Joy
Hmm. I had them all checked, but even when I remove the Cursor box, I still can't see the "My Recent Documents" folder. What system are you running yours on? Is it IP version 3.11? Joy
That's strange...I wonder what IP the screenshot Mike posted is from. I think I have the most recent version, and it's paid for. Perhaps we have a version that's not quite as extensive as the support team has? Hopefully it can be fixed. Like you said, it's trivial and I've ignored it for a while, too, but it's so annoying that when I open my Start menu, everything is uniform and custom except that one! <img src="http://images.stardock.com/sd_com/smiles/Smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="abs
For some reason, "My Recent Documents" isn't even listed in any of my formatting screens. So when I go to "Folder Icons" under Preview, it's not even one of the icons listed. I've tried right clicking the icon when I go to the start button, too, but I'm not even getting a menu when I do that. Any suggestions? Thanks for the reply! Joy
Hi. I have tried everything I can think of to change the folder for "My Recent Documents" on the START menu in Windows XP (right now it's just the standard default icon, even though I have all the others changed through IP). Can anyone help me? It's driving me nuts! Thanks in advance! Joy
