The bug is still there, so I tried to write a workaround.

Could the "FileChooser.useShellFolder" or "FileChooser.noPlacesBar" UIManager properties also be set to workaround this issue?

I had the same problem on Windows Vista Ultimate with 1.5.0.14
You can workaround/fix this problem by modifying the registry.
The relevant key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
A couple of the Shell Folders ("Personal" and "My Pictures" in my case) had an absolute path to a drive that no longer existed.
The folders should be %USERPROFILE%\Pictures rather than absolute paths.

I am rather sad to see that this bug is still not fixed.

Same problem on XP Prof [5.1.2600]
record in registry "User Shell Folders" was OK - i.e. it is NOT general workaround.
It seems it happened always in all java applications using JFileChooser running on certain computers with XP prof. (with different hardware). Same code on other PCs runs well regardless of used JDK/JRE. Problem seems to be dependant on Windowns state/configuration & JDK version.
JDK which runs well
1.6.0
1.6.0_01
JDK which always failed
1.6.0_06
1.6.0_10 rc2 b32

There is a simple workaround:
Ensure that the next folder exists
"%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Documents"
and all will work fine.

This issue has been outstanding for almost 2 years now. SaaS companies have very little control on getting such changes done on end user machines and hence it is very necssary for this to be resolved. Can we get an idea about ETA for a fix?

Vista Ultimate, JDK/JRE 6.0.12;

Problem still exists on Windows XP pro sp3 under jdk 1.6.0_13.
Verified all folders in: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
Unbelievable that this is still an open bug... guess I'll be rolling back to java 5...

I had this problem when using Netbeans 6.7 and tried to verify the problem with a simple java class opening a JFileChooser.
The problem only arises when using the windows system L&F.
So I changed the Netbeans L6F with --laf com.sun.java.swing.plaf.nimbus.NimbusLookAndFeel in netbeans.conf as described in http://blogs.sun.com/netbeansphp/entry/how_to_change_look_and .
Now another annoying problem went away: Sometimes the Netbeans editor could not find all classes from a package but just some of them for code completion and marked the lines with errors .
One interesting point stays: Netbeans 6.5(.1) seems to use the same L6F as 6.7 but there all works correctly, even with the same java version!

We successfully implemented a full workaround by:
- always extending JFileChooser, overriding setup(), and first thing, disabling shell folders using the client property "FileChooser.useShellFolder" before the first call to setUI
- before instantiating, using reflection to replace ShellFolder.shellFolderManager (by default Win32ShellFolderManager2) with a generic instance of ShellFolderManager itself.
Furthermore, we construct JFileChoosers in two attempts. The first is without the above fix; if this fails, and the exception contains the text "ShellFolder" (etc.), we activate the above fixes and try again.
This means users without the problem see the proper file chooser; users with the problem see the Java 1.3 file chooser (with drive letters as roots) and no crashes.

The patch as suggested by http://jython.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jython?view=rev&revision=4161 works fine for my http://www.routeconverter.de/ application.
PLEASE NOTE: JDK6 is formerly known as Project Mustang
