SilverHaze420 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 I did and got "Windows cannot find 'recent'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian873 Posted July 8, 2005 Author Share Posted July 8, 2005 You need to do it on a standard XP install. No mods or tweaks.hail hail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

member11 Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 the best way to find out is to enter recent /? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzöwl Posted July 8, 2005 Share Posted July 8, 2005 Yes, as stated, it will open the 'special folder', %userprofile%\My Recent Documents. My guess is that the clue is in the fact it is a 'special folder'.You can also simply type my documents without needing quotes to get %userprofile%\My Documents, or favorites to get %userprofile%\Favorites and temp to get %windir%\Temp for example.
