Windows 10: My Documents, My Pics are referring to the Temp account

My boss' computer just started doing this. He logs in and all of the his Documents and Pictures are gone. Quickbooks can't find its files.

If you look into his User account, everything is there. So I had him change the location of his Documents folder and the current path is c:\Users\Temp\Documents where it should be c:\Users\HisUserName\Documents. When this is changed all goes back to normal for his My Documents. However, a reboot breaks it again.

I also tried to have him run Remote Assistance so I could poke around myself, but he gets a message saying Remote Assistance is not available with this account.

I had him double check that he is logged into the right account - he is and it is a local admin account.

I am getting many symptoms of being logged in as a guest account, but that is not the case.

Ideas?

Remove account


I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
To delete an account, follow these steps:

1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
   
   Code:

   net user test /del

 

Documents/Pictures folders under 'This PC' refer to onedrive - not the local folders

Since the only folder that has incorrect file path is the Documents folder under This PC, we would suggest you do the same steps provided above. However, do it in your Documents folder under This PC. To do so, kindly follow the steps below:

• Open File Explorer
• Click This PC
• Right-click on Documents
• Click Properties
• Click Location
• Click Restore Default
• Click Apply
• Click OK

Also, we would like to inform you that "winhelponline.com" is not associated with Microsoft.

Let us know how it goes.
