Hey Guys,
I recently tried to make a registry change to have all my documents moved to my memory card. Instead, I accidently used a registry change that made my SD card my actual My Documents folder. Here is the string I used.
HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\SDMemory
and change the value of the string "Folder" to "My documents

Now, I can't use anything that is on my SD memory card. I tried to revert the registry settings back, but I can't remember what the default was, and what I have tried hasn't worked. Any thoughts?

Change the data value for Folder from My Documents to SD Card(most likely). You'll have to do a soft reset afterwards for the changes to take effect. If it turns out that the SD card was previously called something different, you can find what it was by copying a shortcut from your start menu to your desktop for an item installed on the SD card, then opening it in Notepad (the shortcut is just a text file.)
