  1. Local profile on Windows 10 Enterprise gets deleted without clear cause


    Maybe someone has insights for me: We have W10 Enterprise laptops at our company and more often than not, when someone has been on holidays and their company laptop is booted after 2+ weeks of inactivity, they find their local profile data gone. Today I have had six people reporting the issue.Downloads folder, documents folder, desktop folder, all emptied out. Installed apps for all users remain, but local apps and folders on the desktop disappear or are cleared out. In C:\Users you can see the profile has been recreated last modified on the date it occurs.There are no policies active that

    :)
