Something has changed on my system and messed up the Recent Places dialog. It was working fine and very useful.
Now though, for example in these 2 applications, the Recent Places link shows, I click and get a list of folders but when I select one I get an error message box
Expression Web 2
File open, then Recent Places, gives a list of folder but if I select one it tries to open it (as a document?)
eg.
cannot open C:\users\me\Documents\blah\folder.
Word 2007 says
The directory name is not valid.
C:\users\me\Documents\blah\folder\
Office 2007
Attach a file, select recent places. Fine, get a list of recent places. Click on a folder and get a pop up saying:
Cannot find this file. Verify the path and file names are correct.
It's as though vista has forgotten these are folders or something?
any thoughts?
