  1. Accidentally deleted windows files.


    So an accident happened. I was messing around with a Windows XP vm in virtualbox and discovered it had a file manager. So what if i deleted the C:\ drive of the VM? I did exactly that, but instead accidentally chose the actual C:\ drive on my actual system and did not realize this until it deleted my desktop background and my desktop icons. I have system restore disabled and already did sfc /scannow but it didnt restore everything. Search is also gone so I have to use the run box. I need help. Also most apps I had are gone and so is edge and every other browser I had installed. Microsoft store doesnt launch either. And I had IE disabled from the windows features.

    :)

  2. Files Deleted During Failed Windows Update

    If you saved your video projects, they should be on the drive (barring any file system corruption). You can give Recuva a try:

    Accidentally deleted an important file? Lost something important when your computer crashed? No problem! Recuva recovers files deleted from your Windows computer, Recycle Bin, digital camera card, or MP3 player. And it's free!​
    Download the portable version on another PC, unpack it on a flash drive, pop the drive in the trouble machine, and run it off the flash drive. You want to make as few changes to the hard drive as possible before running the recovery program.

    Accidentally deleted windows files.

    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 ?.
