Solution that cannot be expanded by favorites

"Favorites" on the left side of Win7's Explorer provides the equivalent of "shortcuts".

Today my Windows 7 has encountered a minor problem, the "Favorites" of the Explorer cannot be expanded, but the "Library" and "Computer" are fine. But click on "Favorites" to go to the "Favorites" folder, the shortcuts inside are not lost. I tried to right click on "Favorites" and selecting the "Restore Favorites" link has no effect. In other words, some reasons have caused the "Favorites" of Windows 7 Explorer to fail.

The search has not found an answer for a long time. I used English as a keyword to search. After several links and jumped, I finally found the answer.
