  1. Files keep showing up on my desktop


    So today I noticed I had an old video file on my desktop. It was a video I screen recorded of my friends and I playing a game. I moved it back into the folder that I keep videos saved in. A few minutes later I noticed a different video file on the desktop. This has never happened before and am curious what might have caused it.

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    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
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.

    Cannot find Desktop Icon in File Explorer

    My Desktop is showing icons as normal. But if I try to find what is on my desktop by using file manager, I cannot find the icon. I also checked under C;\user my name, public, default and no desktop listed on any of them. Any suggestions?

    File listed on desktop does not show in desktop

    A file, "SAVED AS" should show up here:

    It doesn't.
