  1. 1809 Didn't Delete my files, but STAY or ROLLBACK?


    Since my Windows 10 Feature updates typically have been okay I upgraded my 3 PCS... only to learn some people are having data loss issues. My only PC that holds such data is external HD backed up and Google Backup and Sync'd as well. That said --

    -- would you rollback anyway? Is it too dangerous to keep?

    (I fear a rollback could create it's own issues sometimes.)

    Opinions appreciated

    :)

    deleting hard drive files

    Hi,

    May we know what type of file are you trying to delete? Would it be Office documents, media files, or picture files? If you're trying to delete files for free some space on your device. We suggest to perform a Disc Cleanup. Kindly follow the steps below to
    perform the task:

    • Type in Cortana Disc Cleanup
    • Choose the files to delete
    • Click on "Clean up system files"
    • Click on Ok

    For any concerns, don't hesitate to get back to us.

    Regards.

    1809 Didn't Delete my files, but STAY or ROLLBACK?

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    Step 3- Restarted my machine again and lost desktop files again.

    Step 4 - As suggested did the following as listed below but dont find my files.

    • Press “Windows + E”, open This PC/Computer
    • Open Local Disc C, open Windows.old
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.
