Restore Deleted Default Libraries Shortcuts|Works In Windows 7 And 8

If you're employed on Windows you'd apprehend the Libraries folder. In Libraries, all the files on your pc or external exhausting drives are categorised into Documents, Music, image and Videos mechanically. These libraries square measure terribly convenient to possess, notably once you have lots of files in your exhausting drives.

If for some reason any of these shortcuts somehow get deleted (woops!), don’t worry, there’s a way to restore them. Here’s what you do.

Restoring Default Libraries

There are two methods to bring back the default libraries shortcut, the first is really simple; the second requires you to download a registry file. If the first method doesn’t work, try the registry file method.

Method #1

To begin, open up Windows Explorer via the icon which looks like file folders (see image). If you do not have that icon on your taskbar, just search for Windows Explorer from the Start menu if you’re on Windows 7 or or Windows 8.

Next, look for Libraries on the left sidebar, right click, then choose "Restore default libraries". If your libraries have been restored, then you’re done. If not, move on to method #2.

Method #2

Method 1 didn’t get the job done? Then you’re going to need this here. Double click on it and choose Run.

Your computer will ask you whether you want to give permission to this file to make changes on your computer; click Yes. If you see another window saying "adding information can unintentionally change or delete values and cause components to stop working correctly," keep calm and click Yes again.

You will be shown a third window. This one will say that "the keys and values have been successfully added to the registry," which means you’re done.

Just restart your computer to have your default libraries restored.
