Deleted Files???

I had a ton of files on my Paint and Gimp, and all of them were all of a sudden erased! Does anyone know a way to try and recover them, or how they could have been erased? I've looked everywhere on my computer--Recycle Bin, Files, everything! They've just
vanished! I use Windows 10, and have not updated from previous Windows before they disappeared. If anyone knows what happened, please let me know!

Hi Ken,

When a system file or component of an operating system has been missing or corrupted, your computer will function in an unusual behavior. To make sure that your files are in a healthy state, it is imperative to repair or restore them since they are
part of Windows.

There’s a built-in utility called System File Checker tool that helps users to perform scanning, repairing, and restoring of missing or corrupted files of a computer. You can visit this link:
Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files
to know how to run this tool.

Get back to us if there are any findings after the scan.

 

From that article, " For the first time, the Xbox One will be running essentially the same operating system as desktop Windows. Critically, it will also be able to run many of the same applications as desktop Windows." < That would be nice.

Right now on the XBOX, it's not anything like the desktop version of Windows 10. More like Mobile Window 10. I can run a very limited list of Apps. I can't install any programs other than games written for the XBOX. I wonder how much truth there is in that above statement?

 

Now only if I could play my xbox games on my PC...

 

You can, with an XBOX ONE. The XBOX APP will let you stream your game from your XBOX ONE to your PC.

 

Hi there

Now if only Windows could get Networking right then I'd be happy.

Even after using Windows since Windows/286 -- even before Windows 3 and 3.11 which probably was the first serious decently working version of Windows that could work on LAN's - called Windows for Workgroups and actually ran on a DOS LAN (I think Novell or similar) Networking IMO has always been a total DOG - I've used Linux for donkeys years too - and Networking on those systems just seems to work straight out of the Box.

You only have to look in the Networking section on the Forum to see how hit and miss Windows Networking can be even on seemingly identical hardware.

That actually is my BIGGEST gripe with Windows - and as almost every household now has some sort of Networking it really is time for Ms to just step back from "Obergruppenfuhrer" or "Ms Uber Alles" mode for a bit and FIX this basic problem -- then they can celebrate.

I actually have a lot of respect for Ms - by no means "The Evil Empire" but I do wish they could get Networking right.

I'm a great fan of Windows servers in theory but to actually get anything done at home I still use Linux on my NAS servers -- they ALWAYS work and stream and share stuff with Windows with ZERO problems - and they don't update and reboot at random intervals either. In fact the only time I ever touch those boxes is if I need to install new hardware or manually perform a sensible update. One Box hasn't been booted for over 6 months -- running 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. Still 100% perfect.
