Lost explorer.exe
While working on a friends computer I discovered that his "My Documents" file was missing from the disktop. After looking I found "My Documents" but discovered that Windows explorer was MIA. Everytime I clicked on Windows explorer I got "My Documents" I searched and found explorer.exe but got the same result. Has anybody seen this before? How do I restore Windows explorer?

The computer won't run without explorer.exe...
What happens if you click Start->Run and type Explorer.exe
If it open My Docs, you have an issue with FOLDER "file types"

Thanks for the reply Steve. I tried that and got "My Documents". Giving this some thought I don't see the double pane that's normal for Win explorer. Could there be a folder option some place that's been changed. He says his son-in-law was messing with his computer trying to install software for a cheap dig. camera. Windows explorer is a very useful program-hate to see it lost.
