    Empty Desktop, My Documents, Pictures but logged normally in my User Profile


    Sorry, this is my first time posting. I couldn't find any support / get help / chat from MS.Hope you guys can help.Issue:I logged in earlier and everything was normal - login screen, account/profile, desktop files, theme, etc. While I was trying to print as PDF, a simple 1page email, I noticed it would save or load the save locations. Waited several minutes and nothing while my Task Manager showed 100% utilization of my disks when I only had 1 mailbox opened.I restarted my machine, and it took long to load my sign-in screen. When I did, it was the same profile as usual... but my desktop, task

    :)

  2. Windows 10 user profile 5.4 GB normal?

    Can it be normal? Definitely! It all depends on what you as a user put in there. If you keep your movie collection in your profile, 2TB could be considered normal. Is it normal for a brand new, still unused profile? Probably not.

    It's good to know what windows keeps in your profile. It's basically everything that's personal to you as a user such as:

    • Your personal settings
    • Your document libraries such as documents, videos, pictures, etc.
    • Whatever data or cache your installed software decides to put there.
    • Applications and apps that are installed in your user profile instead of the Program Files folder such as some versions of Chrome.

    User/profile is downloads folder

    The "C:\Users\User\Downloads" is normal, Users is default with Windows install and User is the log-in name created when Windows is first set up. The default Folders list such as Downloads, Documents, Pictures, Music, Videos, etc., is normal under C:\Users\User\.
