  1. Windows 10 update changed my desktop


    So basically, before I went to sleep, there was a windows 10 update so I just decided to update it & shut my laptop off. I just woke up and went to turn on my laptop, and when I logged into my account the whole desktop changed. It's like I got a new laptop but all my apps are still on it. The shortcuts are gone and my personalized desktop became default. My accounts were all signed out and all my history was gone (chrome), what happened? can I turn it back?

    update :I just checked my files and they're all empty? wtf should I do? can I do a rollback somehow?

    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
