    Greetings Ian, Thank you for taking the time to post a comment. When you mentioned "it failed," do you mean the Fix it failed to run or it failed to resolve your issue? If the Fix it failed to run please provide us any error messages or details about the failure. If the Fix it ran but didn't resolve your issue ensure you having the same issue that is described in Knowledge Base article 949109 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949109)? The Fix it is only designed to resolve the issue described in 949109 so if you are having a different issue the Fix it won't resolve it. Since you are running Windows Vista please open an administrative command prompt and run a command for us. You may do this by the following steps.

  1. Select Start > All Programs > Accessories, right mouse click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
  2. In the command prompt type the following command (without the quotes). "reg query HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionexplorerFolderDescriptions /s > %userprofile%desktopFolderRename.txt" The above command will create a text file on your desktop named "FolderRename.txt." Please mail that file to us, atfixit4me@microsoft.com Sincerely, Steve

    We have re-released this Microsoft Fix it solution to account for additional scenarios that were uncovered after the first Microsoft Fix it was released. Instead of only writing the SamplePlaylists registry value under HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionexplorerFolderDescriptions we now:

  • Set all the registry values under HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionexplorerFolderDescriptions

  • Set all the registry values under HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionProfileList

  • Delete a duplicate RecycleBin entry of HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionexplorerFolderDescriptions{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E} Thanks, -brian

    Hello Bill, Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. Can you run the following reg query commands and send the files (folderrename.txt and profilelist.txt) to fixit4me@microsoft.com?

  1. Select Start > All Programs > Accessories, right mouse click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
  2. In the command prompt type the following command (without the quotes). "reg query HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionexplorerFolderDescriptions /s > %userprofile%desktopFolderRename.txt" "reg query “HKLMSOFTWAREMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionProfileList” > %userprofile%desktopProfileList.txt" The FolderRename.txt and ProfileList.txt files will be located on your desktop. Thanks, -brian

    Hy everybody. I had to apply this fix on a Vista Home Premium x64 (it was very hard to find this solution) and after rebooting, my AutoCAD 2010 and Max 2010 don't work anymore. Anybody knows how that fix may be affecting AutoDesk software? Thanks for help, F.
