Restore previous version of Chrome User Data in Windows 10

Hi all,

one of my Chrome extensions recently lost all its settings overnight, including a whitelist that I very heavily rely on. I'm trying to restore the User Data directory to before these settings disappeared, and indeed the Previous Versions function in Windows 10 tells me older versions are available for being restored.

However, when I try to restore these, I get an error message that reads "Restore skipped restoring the file: [entire directory] to original location." The options for Restore To and Open also greyed out. I've read many accounts of people restoring their Chrome user data using the same method, so I'm not sure why I am unable to do the same.

The directory is located in C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data, which makes me think it may possibly be a permissions issue. I've already made sure all Chrome processes are ended, but to no avail.

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

Thanks a lot in advance,

 

Lost folders after Windows 10 download

Hi,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am sorry to know that you have
lost all your personal folders. Do not worry, will assist you with the issue.

If you can't find a file on your computer or you accidently 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. Previous versions are copies of files
and folders that Windows automatically saves as part of a restore point. Previous versions are sometimes referred to as shadow copies.

• 
  Are you able to find all the data in Windows.Old folder?
  

Method 1

Step 1: If you don’t know the path, Press Windows key and R key together.

Step 2: Type “C:” and tap on
Enter key

Step 3: Open Windows.Old folder and check.

Please get back to us, we will be happy to assist you.

 

LOST DATA ONENOTE

Hi Jeff,





There are a lot of possible factors for this matter. To isolate the issue, I have a couple of questions for you:

• 
  Were there any changes made before the issue occurred?
  
• 
  What activity triggered the issue?
  
• 
  Were there any error messages appear before your device went to repair mode?
  
• 
  What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
  

I recommend that you perform a system restore and see if you can still recover the lost data. To perform a system
restore, follow these steps:

• 
  Go to
  Control Panel.
  
• 
  Change
  View to Small icons.
  
• 
  Choose
  Recovery.
  
• 
  Click on
  Open System Restore.
  
• 
  Choose the restore point to when the issue is not occurring.
  

For more information, check to the article entitled
"Recovery
options in Windows 10" and refer to the instructions under
Restore from a system restore point.



We'll waiting for any updates from you.



Regards.
