Manual deletion of shared object problem

This is the line of code that creates my shared object:

MySaves = SharedObject.getLocal("MyGames/MySOL","/");

I manually deleted it by going to this folder and deleting the MySOL.sol file and the #MyGames folder that contained it:

C:\Users\<name>\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\<random>\localhost\

Now when I run my Flash, it hangs when it gets to the part where it's supposed to read data from the shared object. Isn't it supposed to create a new .sol file if one doesn't already exist? Strangely it will create the #MyGames folder, but it will be empty. Any ideas?
