    Lost documents after Windows update.


    How can I recover my documents folder deleted by recent Windows 10 update. I am desperately looking for help with this. I have looked in the suggested folders etc., but no luck. My pictures are there but the documents folder is GONE. Please help. Very important documents have been deleted.

    I lost my documents after the windows 10 upgraded, which seems that it roll back to the previous version months ago.

    Hi,

    It is possible that you're unable to find your documents because it was hidden or move where they are saved before after the update. To assist you better, we'd like to gather more information:

    • Are you able to backup your files before the update?
    • Does your OneDrive files sync to your computer before update?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you follow the steps in this article on how to find lost files after the
    update to Windows 10. You can expand each section and perform the instructions.

    Keep us posted if you need additional help.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond Lost documents after Windows update. :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
