    Documents folder structure mostly remained, All actual files deleted


    How do i recover and why does this continue to happen? I dont want one drive. Ever since I uninstalled the horrible program, my files which were saved in Documents" folder have been inaccessible, moved, or missing. I uninstalled one drive five days ago, used my computer today and the documents folder is missing. Where did it go? Found how to add it back. Added it back. But now instead of the 20 something folders and 50 loose filesabout 200 items total, five folders and one loose fileabout ten total items. In my recycle bin, unbeknownst to me, is a folder called C:/Username/OneDrive/Docum

    :)

    My Documents Files - Deleted?

    For some reason all the files apart from My Games/Crysis Wars have been somehow deleted without my doing. Strangely, I went to play Crysis Wars the other day and my profiles were gone, thinking nothing of it I proceded to reset them up. Also strangely, I did not install any games folders in My Documents, somehow the folders Games/Crysis Wars just appeared, when, I really don't know. I have install my OS on a seperate hard drive and My Documents as well as every other folder used as storage is linked to another seperate HDD. Tried a system restore, still no good, why? Has Crysis somehow deleted/corrupted this folder? confused:

    My Documents Files - Deleted?

    Thanks for the reply though my drive letter is actually F:\ and does not show a Data folder. When I click on the shortcut it takes me straight to my (administrators name)/Documents, so the link is correct. Not sure what happened.
