My Documents on the desktop and in Windows-E view.

User complained that My Documents was not on his desktop and not appearing in the explorer view when he pressed the WindowsKey and E. After about 30 mins of hunting through to find the solution it was "easy when you know how". Just go to control panel/Folder Options/View tab and select Show My documents on the desktop. You do not have to edit the registry, run various dll routines, use tweakui or throw the monitor out of the window.

Where's the challenge in that? Anyone could do that, give me a registry edit, or dll routine any day! :)
