Folders/icons on desktop gone
I am on 1903
I will explain this as it played out
I had battlenet on my computer but it was a blank icon..tried uninstalling it but it wouldn't let me. I could not get it to uninstall. Not sure why it was blank..i never uninstalled it before.
I downloaded a fresh copy of the battlenet app from blizzards website
I proceed to install it and login
I notice there is a copy of heathstone installed and i didn't want it so i clicked the "setting" option above the game and clicked uninstall on hearthstone.
Right away after clicking uninstall, before any uninstall process could start pretty much all of my shortcuts(accept for a few random ones) and ALL of my folders and documents i had disappeared from my desktop.
i have run a health check and scannow and some restarts.
I have checked in my users folder in c\user\desktop
id imagine its some sort of registry error maybe? with battle net being a blank icon to it "hiding/removing" all my icons right after clicking uninstall it sounds like a reg error.
Also after restarting ..I go to click on "uninstall or change a program" just out of random and all it would do was close before even opening it. here is an screencap: Screen capture - a99ae684420698462012fc21eed0ada3 - Gyazo
thats also telling me there is something up with explorer too.
I'm not sure but i need some of those files back and i cant get my original desktop to show.
