Similar problem here, did a Disk Cleanup which somehow managed to delete virtually every single file on the harddrive. Apparently the only ones not deleted were the ones in use. WinXP is still running and Explorer works but no applications will run. Installed Recuva on a flash stick and it finds all the missing files and although I selected the 'Recover folder structure' option, I get the same blank Browse For Folder dialog box.
I don't want to alter the drive in any way by loading anything onto it for fear of overwriting valuable data. What to do from here?
