    all my stuff is gone!


    yesterday after restarting my computer it had been a while all my stuff disappeared....my desktop background pic was removed to a black screen, icons on my task bar turned into little blank piece of paper icons, file folders on my desktop are gone, lots of programs are gone or personal settings eliminated such as....my MMO game short cut not on desktop - have to go find it in the folder, have to watch cinematic again and accept all TOS again and all addons are gone, minion is gone discord gone but also have to end task on it to reinstall....My firefox browser lost all the bookmarks and is no longer default

    im also getting a ton of Javascript errors especially when reinstalling discord...


    ive tried everything I can think of including restoring back to may 13th and the issue is still there...


    I noticed this -

    https://betanews.com/2020/02/13/windows-10-kb4532693-lost-user-profile/


    but I cannot find that update in my update history....but yet it does sound to me like it might be the issue - I just cant find the files, if they are hidden, and I cant see any additional profiles.....


    any ideas at all on what happened and how to get it back?

    thank you!

    :)

  2. Why did the startup window get cleared?

    I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

    Shortcut key for "My Stuff" ?

    Using Windows 10, here's the steps I'm taking to search for files on the computer:

    • Click Start Menu (or tap the Windows key on the keyboard)
    • Start typing a search term
    • Click "My Stuff"
    • When it finds your file, click it to make the file open
    • If you want to open File Explorer and peruse similar files without opening files:
      • After clicking "My Stuff" (in Step 3) go to the bottom area under "Other places to look" and click "File Explorer"
      • File Explorer opens

      Question: I don't want to use the mouse to click "My Stuff" in step 3. Is there a shortcut key?
