    I moved 'My Pictures' and 'My Music' from My Documents to the Shared Documents folder by dragging them to the folder. Now I want them back in My Documents and the operating system won't let me do it.

    The message is:
    My Pictures is a Windows system folder and is required for Windows to run properly. It cannot be moved or renamed.

    But I moved it to the Shared Documents folder from My Documents and now I can't move it back.
