    Hi Jennie,

    If you can't find a file on your computer or you accidentally modified or deleted a file, you can restore it from a backup (if you're using Windows backup) or you can try to restore it from a previous version. You can refer
    to this article for the steps:
    Recover lost or deleted files
    .

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    No. Rollback doesn't affect personal files. In fact to do a rollback would make chances of recovering files worse as you would be writing more to the disk.

    If you don't have backup and can't recover them they are lost unfortunately.

    In fact there are data recovery programs, which you could try to use. However, I agree with halasz in one important point: Your data (or huge part of it) most likely is no longer there: When a file gets deleted, then it most likely is recoverable. But when the sectors, in which this file had been saved, get overwritten by something else, then the previous information is lost. The upgrade writes gigabytes of data to disc so chances are not good.

    If you have a backup, you should try going from there.

    Apart from that I do not understand, why the upgrade would delete your files. Usually your files will just stay as they were before...

    How did you do the upgrade?
    Did you tell it to save files and settings during the upgrade?

    Can you find any of the files in C:\Windows.old?

    Files and settings stored in the Users or Documents and Settings subfolders of Windows.old might still be available in Windows.old after 28 days, but other files, including Windows installation files, will be deleted. If you decide you want some or all of these files back, you can usually retrieve them from this folder.
