Windows 10: Windows 10 files and downloads gone.

Hey,

So i logged into my pc today and all was fine, Go to work and all of a sudden all my downloads, files are gone, i have no extensions in chrome anymore and need to log back into every website.

I still have some of my games installed and steam. My dad changed the Microsoft password and that one worked instead of the old one in the morning today.

What has happened and can i get it back as i have important things that are now gone.

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
