Folder short cut on desktop won't open with left click
I have what seems to be an odd problem. I have a short cut to open the D: drive on my desktop. When I left double click it nothing happens. The D: drive is the "My Documents" folder. I redirected this folder from its location on the C: drive to the D: drive. I can open it by right clicking and selecting "OPEN". All other shortcuts work normally including short cuts to other drives (E:,F:, etc.). Also when left double clicking on the D: drive from within the "My Computer" folder it opens normally. Does anyone know what's wrong here?

The best think to do, since it is a short cut, delete it and redefine it.
