  1. Did I mess up my Appdata/Roaming folder?


    Hey all,I was going through my AppData folder and accidentally double clicked on the folder name for "Roaming" and started the file renaming process the one where that "typing" bar shows up at the end of the file name. I know that renaming/moving these folders can mess up a lot of stuff so I'm a bit worried I might have done that, but I believe I clicked off without inputting any changes. Could this mess anything up with my user profile? Or does Windows not even recognize initiating a file rename if no changes are inputted?Thanks

    :)

    To research further about this concern, kindly answer the following questions for clarification:

    • About the roaming function, do you wish to prevent Windows 10 from storing files on the AppData>Roaming folder?
    • If not, do you wish to delete some files on the AppData folder?

    Kindly specify which kind of configuration you wish to perform. Meanwhile, we suggest that you check this

    Roaming AppData folder appears in OneDrive

    Hello

    In my Onedrive, I have a folder called E:\OneDrive\Kiki - appdata\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows with 2 subfolders, Recent and Start Menu.

    I dont quite understand why it's there and not in the normal appdata section in C:\Users\Kiki\AppData\Roaming. I've tried to reset the location of the Roaming folder to default but no that hasn't helped.

    If anyone can provide a fix, that would be lovely!

    Thanks!!

    Roaming folder's setting not loaded comepletely?

    I assume you are talking about this folder:

    c:\Users\Jianwei\AppData\Roaming

    If so then these steps should fix the problem:

    1. Mark the code line below, then press Ctrl+C to copy it.
    2. Click the Start globe.
    3. Press Ctrl+V to paste the code line.
    4. Press Enter.

    cmd.exe /c attrib -h -r /s /d "%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming" & pause
