My Documents is a folder provided by default, in which, typically, one
stores all one's documents and files. On an NT/XP system, it is an
abbreviation for C:\Documents and Settings\[User Name]\My Documents.

My recent documents is an active folder, maintained automatically by
Windows, containing shortcuts to the files and folders you have recently
used.

what is the difference between "my recent documents" and "my documents"
and
why does my recent documents always show an icon with a shortcut arrow on
it?
