Windows 10: desktop folders recovery

I used the command rd /s "\\?\C: Users/dell/desktop and deleted all my desktop folders by mistake. Now I don't know how I can get the files back.

click the top spoiler and then look down to recovery.

All of the suggestions in the old threads were consolidated into that one.

 

Deleted icons stay on desktop (not in desktop folder)

I can only suggest that you
1 Add a list of steps you have already taken.
2 Add a comment about restarting the computer. Do the deleted icons disappear then?
2 Add a comment explaining if any Desktop items do delete correctly and whether or not there are any significant differences between those that do delete correctly and those that don't.
3 Add a list of any OS tweaks you have done & any third-party OS-related utilities you have run.

I assume you have already reinstalled your display driver.
I don't see a Repair install as being relevant. Repair Install - TenForumsTutorials

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

Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.
