Windows 10: Favourites.

My favourites are creating copies of folders and files (web links). Its not every folder/file but it's some random selection.

They always "update" at just after midnight. eg 00.15.21 or 00.35.12. And that is around the time I log-off.

Some of the new copied folders are empty whereas some folders end up with duplicate copies of the files/links.

Some of the "copied" folders do not copy the full name of the old one. eg old folder "Holiday folders. Holidays taken" new folder "Holidays taken"

Some folders in IE have disappeared completely but still appear in Microsoft Edge.. Yeah, I know I should stop using IE completely but Im still more comfortable with IE.. That said Im slowly getting better with Edge


My question is... WT* is happening !!!!! And better still how do I stop it?

Windows 10 My Favourites list is gone!

I have loaded up Windows 10 and my favourites list is gone. This is pretty frustrating as I had a big list of favourites built up over a couple of years for work and my own personal browsing. I tried the adive offered by Krishna to Maggie in the forum which
was:

"I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps to restore the favourites.

• Click This PC
• Type %userprofile% into the Address bar
• Press Enter on your keyboard
• Right click the Favorites folder
• Click Properties
• Click Previous Versions
• Wait for the list of previous versions to load
• Select a version that was before you lost the files/folders
• Click Restore."

When I got to step 6 my previous versions list showed only today. Surely the loading of Windows 10 has not wiped out my Favourites? What can I do from here?
