    Hello,

    I have been using Parallels Desktop for months and it's been working great, so thank you. Now after few months I have noticed that the Windows 7 guest OS My Documents icon is some random icon, I dont know from where. The icon in virtual machine is the correct one, but Parallels apparently sync's over another icon. It is not a critical problem, as everything still works like it should, but it is really annoying seeing the icon like that. I have tried to remove the dock and recreate it for the virtual machine, but the problem is still here.

    I have searched the forums and Google, but I did not find any similar problem.

    Does anyone have an idea how to fix this?

    Thanks.

    The attachment has the error on a screenshot. :)

    I suggest you to open Configuration -> Options -> Sharing -> uncheck Sharing. Restart virtual machine. Make sure you don't see any shared folders in Mac. Share everything again.

    Thank you for your reply. I have tested what you described, but the problem still persists. I'm thinking format is coming up very soon. :(
