Restore My Documents on the submenu when I right click on an icon

I have a VISTA operating system.  When I want to send a file in My Documents, I right-click on the icon (e.g. Word) and the submenu ' send to ' appears, but miss me the My Documents item. He was there as well as the recipient of the message etc.

HOW TO RESTORE THIS ITEM IN THE SUBMENU?

This was copied from http://www.winhelponline.com/articles/98/1/How-to-Add-Items-to-the-Send-To-Menu-in-Windows-Vista.html , and is just what you need in order to add the Documents item or any other item that you want (you should add and not my Documents because My Documents is not a real file - it is a junction point - and should not be viewed or changed in any way or you can create problems in your system).  My Documents has been used by XP, but it is now called Documents in Vista.  The old My Documents in Vista is there only for backward for compatibility for programs produced before Vista or where programmes have not caught up with changes in system (even fairly recent programs).  If you are using XP I'm not sure these procedures (or those provided bv Spirit that go well beyond what you asked but good information however)) won't work because the two systems are very different at this level - case can't even try * just after back or better yet just go on the Forums of XP for the support to the : http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsxp...

Adding items to the send to menu

The menu send to in Windows Vista contains the following by default:

  • Compressed (zipped) folder
  • Desktop (create shortcut)
  • Documents (NOTE: don't forget yours isn't already here before you add another - it should be and I don't know why he disappeared)
  • Fax recipient
  • Recipient of the message
  • Floppy drive (if present in the system)
  • Discs DVD-RW/CD-RW (If it is present in the system)

To add a destination to the send menu, you must add a shortcut to the SendTo folder. To do this, follow these steps:

  • Click on the Start button and one of the two commands below, type in the search box:

Shell: sendto

-or-

%AppData%\microsoft\windows\sendto

  • Press ENTER. SendTo folder of your user profile opens.
  • On the file menu, click new, and then click shortcut.
  • Follow the instructions in the wizard create a shortcut and create a shortcut to your favorite program. A new shortcut is created in the SendTo folder, and it is displayed on the send to menu.
  • Repeat the last three steps for eah element to add.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!
