Evening everyone,
A quick question - if I upgrade by installing 10 over 7, will I lose files etc that are currently on my desktop, and in my downloads and documents libraries?.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks, chaps.
On another issue though, while I was at work my Wife decided to use the Upgrade option, and had installed Windows 10, and the latest version through Windows Update. She has another SATA HDD (local disk E) on which she has backed up her odds and ends. That HDD shows up in Settings, storage, but it clicking on it it says that it's not accessible, and just says NTFS.
Do I suggest trying to get the latest drivers for her motherboard etc?. Speccy (by Piriform) already detects the other HDD though.
Very Best Wishes,
Bob.
Is it being seen in Disk Management? I don't mean File Explorer. When you say SATA HDD do you mean an external HDD or a 2nd internal?
One more question, please bear with me, even if I don't know the answer someone else might. She used the upgrade option using setup.exe from the Win7 desktop. Was Win/ BIOS or EFI partitioned before? and did it maybe get change during/by the upgrade. I ask because then Windows will not be able to see the 2nd disk if it has a different partitioning as the OS. Not all is lost if this is the case though, just time consuming.
