Windows 10: Is tere a way to restore Data that was moved to a temporary profile ?

The main Account of my PC was broken and the only way to log in was through a temporary profile. I was in the temporary profile but I didnt knew it was a temporary profile at that time, I thought its a normal account. I moved all the data from the desktop of the corrupted main account into the temporary profile. After closing and opening the PC, everything was deleted since I didnt knew it was like that. It was very very important data that got deleted, is there a way to restore that data ? I have no other chance to get these data again forever, meaning if its gone now, I cant ever get it again from anywhere else. After moving everything to the temporary profile, all data was gone from the main profile to the temporary one of course. Please, I need to restore these data, it contained very old video files etc. I cant lose that! It all happened in Windows 10.

Fix You've been signed in with a temporary profile in Windows 10  


I came home today and had to log in to my desktop. When I did it said it was preparing Windows and I was taken to the temporary profile. I followed the tutorial to delete the profile folder path (step 9). At some point in the process, I confirmed that I could see my old files in C: \Users\BriggsDesktop. When I restarted, it went through the "We're glad you're here" screens. However it took me back to the desktop that looks just like the temporary profile one. I can no longer find all of my files. I tried doing a restore, but it did not complete successfully. Suggestions?

 

Clearing (and restoring) Private data


Hi I have some Questions about „cleaning“ up or removing personal/private data & configuration from a Windows 10 PC.

It is about a PC that should be sent to the Vendor to get repaired.
It is not my PC but from a friend.
Usually in such a case I would create an image from the System and reset the OS to factory settings to wipe the data/settings.
But this time I don’t have enough space (and will not have time for it) (Don’t need suggestions for Imaging).

The normal Data (documents, pictures …) are regularly saved / backup so not needed to be saved additionally.
The goal would be removing / backing up the personal Data (in a fast and space saving way) to have them removed and make it possible to put them back, but not deleting /removing the installed Programs, applications and Games (Win32).

From my experience with Windows 7 or Older PCs I would also:

• Browser: backup Profile and clean it (Easy to restore)
• Mail Program: backup Profile and clean it (Easy to restore)
• Change User password (easy to restore)

But as for Windows 10 there are some new … implications about the

• connected Microsoft account
• and the Apps

How to deal with them?
How to remove / disconnect them in a way I can restore afterwards again?
