Internet Explorer / IE >> IE7 cannot add favourites

I am running IE7.0.6000.16386 in Vista Business and am no longer able to add
Favourites to my Photography folder, but the same url can be added to other
Folders.

The message I get is :-
Windows Internet Explorer
Unable to create '7dayshop.com - Online Store':
Unspecified error

Can anyone suggest what the problem is? I presume the easiest way is to
create a new folder and save my favourites there, then delete the corrupt
folder, but perhaps there is a problem which Microsoft needs to identify and
reslove.

Internet Explorer83  
 
 
Ramesh,

Did you relocate the "Favorites" folder recently? This error occurs =
after relocating the "Favorites" folder in Windows Vista. There is an =
additional step you need to perform after relocation. See:

Internet Explorer / IE >> IE7 cannot add favourites Ramesh,

I had imported my Favorites from my XP computer by copying and pasting as
the Easy Transfer Cable method did not work, neither could I network the 2
computers because of a problem.
In fact it is only one folder in Favorites which would not alow me to save
to it so I created a new folder and transferred all of the favourites from
the misbehaving folder and am able to save to the new folder so that has
solved the problem.
The link you posted in your reply does not work.
Thanks for your assistance.
