Missing Shortcut Names.

Hi All,



I have Windows Vista Ultimate.



I also have a folder on my Desktop called "Games". In it are shortcuts to
all the games on my PC.

About a month ago, all the names under the shortcuts disappeared.



The "Medium Icons" I was using remain, but no names. Using the "Views" tab I
can scroll through all the different sized icons. Only the "Tiles",
"Details" and "List" show icon names. All others, "Small", "Medium",
"Large" and "Extra Large" Icons have no names.



I have another folder on my Desktop called "Applications", which also has
"Medium Icon" shortcuts to Applications that I use regularly. This is not
affected.



Any ideas out there as to what may have happened to my icon names and how I
can correct it?



Dave.
