    Win10 upgrade 1809 from Win 10 deleted every file on my pc


    All of it. The thing showed up today, automatically, then there was nothing left. Tears of joy for a clean computer uncluttered by anything of use to me !

    Upgrade is most certainly NOT fixed. No warning at all this would happen and assuring people it is fixed will guarantee it keeps deleting people's files. Surely this is a willful criminal offence. Now I have a new job of looking into that. You people are evil. Absolutely evil.

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    Step 3- Restarted my machine again and lost desktop files again.

    Step 4 - As suggested did the following as listed below but dont find my files.

    • Press “Windows + E”, open This PC/Computer
    • Open Local Disc C, open Windows.old
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.

  3. Power Hibernate Option Stops Working Correctly after Win10 1809 Upgrade

    Hi Nikhar Khare,

    Many thanks for taking the time to look into the problem.

    To answer your questions:

    • Is this happening all the time or is it intermittent? A: It has been happening all time ever the first boot-up since the Ver 1809 upgrade whenever the PC was turned hibernate either by Home key > power logo> Hibernate or by pressing
      the power button (which was set as hibernate. The hibernate function worked well up until last boot-up before the upgrade.
    • What is the make and model of your computer? A:
      The PC is a Dell Inspiron laptop. OS is Win 10 Home V1809 64-bit Build 17763.1
    Execution of your suggested solution protocol did not solve the problem.

    Hopefully you can suggest other solutions for trying.

    Regards!
