Windows 10: My Pictures file does not exist, how to completely factory reset?

For background info, my C: drive is small, so I use my D: drive as where I try to keep everything but important files on it. I must have incorrectly tried to move my pictures file because games would put screenshots in the original picture file location? I don't know why or how, but last night when trying to access my photos it was showing me an error saying the file location was not right. After trying to wipe my computer 2 times last night with the advanced options to remove absolutely everything on it, I still opened my computer up to empty files that I made myself. One drive had taken over

Sending pictures to an existing CDR


I used XP for almost fourteen years without a problem. Now that I have windows10 I haven't been able to add pictures to exist8ing cd's. No problems with data or music. I also cannot view the picture CD's. I double click burn to disc but nothing happens. I get a list but no way to view it. I get a notice,these files are ready....etc. but when I click on a folder to transfer new contents...nothing happens. I'm at a loss on how to procede. Any step by step would be greatlyb appreciated.

 

how do i reset a asus laptop to factory settings?

The process of resetting an Asus laptop to factory settings can vary depending on the model and operating system. However, here are the general steps you can follow:

1. Back up your important files and data to an external hard drive or cloud storage as resetting your laptop to factory settings will erase all data.
   
2. Press the "F9" key repeatedly while the Asus laptop is booting up. This will take you to the recovery menu.
   
3. Select "Restore factory settings" from the menu.
   
4. Follow the prompts to confirm the reset process.
   
5. Wait for the reset process to complete, which may take several minutes.
   
6. Once the reset is complete, your Asus laptop will be restored to its original factory settings.
   

 

Quick Access not searching Pictures folder

Summary, that last suggestion didn't work.

• I moved the pictures to another folder temporarily.

• Then I tried to remove the Pictures folder with option one at Add or Remove Folders from This PC in Windows 10 | Windows 10 Tutorials. Even after rebooting, the Pictures folder remained.
• So I tried using option two. Same thing: reboot >> Pictures folder still there.

• Since there were no troubleshooting steps for this scenario, just for the heck of it, I ran through the restore steps. Copied some pictures into the Pictures folder, ran a Quick Access search and initial problem remains: Searching all of QA doesn't find any files in Pictures folder, running search on just the Pictures folder does. I want to run a global search and find matching files in any/all of the Documents, Music, Videos, and Pictures folders.

That article dates from 2015 and I'm guessing is out of date. I hope it didn't create potential future problems in my registry.

Bottom line: I'm still looking for a fix.
