")Hi,

the video folder (the standard one under User/username) has suddenly
disappeared. The shortcut link in Windows Explorer under "favourite links" is
still there. The data also must be somewhere as the free space on my HDD
hasn't increase.
I have searched the whole drive and any folder but it's nowhere to be found.
Any help on this?

Pete

Check recycle bin? Seriously, you may have accidentally deleted it.
Also, did you try to find any of the video files that were in that folder
using Advanced Search or the open file feature of the last video player that
had played one of the video files?

Click Start, type "shell:My Video" (Press ENTER).

Does the Videos folder open?
