My Documents has been moved from C: to D: drive. When I go to Start > My Documents I get "John's Documents", "Peter's Documents" and other files. Since I backed up drive C: from an external HDD now when I go to Start > My Computer I get all the drives plus "John's Documents" and "Peter's Documents", as I expect it to be.
