Windows 10: desktop files have suddenly disappeared

I haven't had any issues until I started up a game through a verified service, the game crashed and nearly everything that I had on my desktop whether related to the game or not are all gone. The recycle bin has nothing in it, my files are just gone. Is there anything I can do to recover them?

Desktop files disappeared and cannot be searched or unhidden, help

Hello, I was working on something in chrome and suddenly I noticed all of my desktop files disappeared. I tried searching and unhiding them as suggested in some threads but I still couldn't get them back. They are not in the recycle bin. Any ideas of what might be happening? Some files are quite important and I really need them back.

I also had had an issue a week ago where I would save a certain file and it disappears from the desktop every time. I saved the file to a new location and it stayed. I wonder if this is the same issue. Please help *Sad

 

Files disappearing from desktop

Saving files to my desktop causes them to disappear.

My desktop is clear save for the Recycle Bin - and NO the file is not hiding behind it.

File Viewer shows a file ON the desktop but it's nowhere to be found - viewport is completely blank.

Any suggestions?

I am not able to do this because the folder disappeared with the files. The folder was on the desktop and those steps cannot be done on the desktop folder
