My documents messed up, need help finding registry values!!

[Respawns]

Okay, this is the situation, il keep it short.

I changed the target path for my documents on the start menu ( location
tab )
Tried doing it again..and the location tab is gone.

Not only that but when navigating through the hard drive..

C:\Users\Respawns\Desktop

It now says..

C:\Users\Documents\Desktop

Now i cant install programs because the Application data tmp folder
isnt where the programs think it is..its called Documents now instead of
Respawns..

But i still login as Respawns!

I've taken ownership of everything btw.
I AM THE ADMIN.

Just need to find the registry path for the start menu and change it
through there.

Thanks in advance guys i cant do anything ive just done a clean install
and cant use any programs so please help!

Hi Respawns,

Option 1: Use the REG file here to reset the path for Documents/Picture/Music folders:

-or-

Option 2:

You can change the Documents path in the registry. See Method 2 here:

(Fix the value data for "Personal".)
