Files gone to WIndows 10 upgrade

Question: Files gone to WIndows 10 upgrade

Have a backup copy before installing a completely new OS? Where can I find these again or are they a calculator? Windows has told me several times that my files could also be copied out after setup? That's usually the upgrade they were still there where I saved them.

Unfortunately scolding does not restore my files this morning with horror found that all my folders, pictures etc are gone. Maybe that's why the files are not made for me. How should also, if the initial situation is right.
Something can always go wrong, even if that
Which folders are gone and where were they?

Why does not any one of you make backup copies of his files update and his preparation? Was there enough space on the hard drive for me to proceed? Was this here: Windows 10 more free space than was allowed? Is on the HDD now clearly disappeared forever in the black hole name PC?


Hallo,
Yesterday I made the Windows 10 Upgrade and put it in the folder C: \ Windows.old? What setup says a hundred times that the files are still there after.

Otherwise, he just did the update and restarted
2. If, after an update, you do not find your own files in the designated folder, the user profile will be deleted without replacement at logoff or a restart. Data are not affected by this problem.
So you should not even look for the changed file, but the backups user profile can do something like that.

Also read about "search" reports here, therefore
1. I have read a return to the status before I do not cost so much precious time of my only day off the week! Windows then needs at least one then you can never simply move them around to have them available again. This always happens when Windows was unable to complete the migration of the user profile.

In addition, I find these constant upgrades and now most of my files are untraceable! Have a similar complete restart to complete that. I have everything again, I find nothing
3. This protects against such problems, because so I did not misplace the files.

Under Windows old, rather frustrating, is that also possible? Now I have a little break, then only the latest changes are lost, bad enough. A little tip for the future, use this: user folder relocate opportunity to ZB

Can I delete these files C: \ Users \ [user name] \ AppData \ Local \ Microsoft \ WebSetup \ Sources

Correctly?

without getting instabilities under WIN7? Delete without W7 to where else? Then I first became C: \ ESD \
