Library contents in the "Documents Icon" show all files in an included folder instead of just fhe included folder.
Hi,
If I add "My Documents" to the library, the "Documents" folder appears exactly as shown in "My Documents in one pc. However, the other pc shows over a thousand files in the library "My Documents. Using Windows 7 on bothe pcs. Both were complete installations of Win7. Please advise.
Thanks,
Joe

A bit lost here. "right click on the 'size' field and select 'folder path' view." Rignt click on what?
Also I went to the original "c:/Users/"My Documents" and did an "Include in LIbrary" , which put those files in the library with a 100,00 misc. files. Not sure why the age of files would appear "wierd". Please advise,

Hi,
I am convinced that my Win 7 OS is messed up, since I do the same procedure on my other pc and it works fine.

nimatejic,
Instead of showing -
Libraries
Documents
My Documents
It shows -
Libraries
Documents [with thousands of gif, etc files]
My Documents (C:)
My Documents (C:) is very strange, but I cannot find any reason for it.
No third party software installed other than normal Office etc.

I removed c:/Users/"My Documents" from the library. When I try to add any folder back to "Documents", I get a ton of odd files added.
Also removed c:/Users/Public folder.
Thanks,
