    Great news.

    It could have been an easily made mistake when trying to originally move them.

    I see. My main goal was to have the source folders on the 4TB storage, and only have program/program data folders on my OS SSD. The overall intent was achieved; however, that naming issue popped up and i couldn't figure out how or why it happened. Thank you for your time and patience.

    Doesn't appear to be working for me.


    Hey, I just tried using the Restore All Default User Folders in This PC 64bit option, but it did not seem to work for me. So far I have restarted my pc and restarted the windows explorer, but I only have Devices and Drives in This PC. Not sure if this is needed, but the orignal folders were removed randomly shortly after I factory restarted this computer.
    I have Windows 10 Pro (64 bit).

    Hello Bynirn, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)

    Do you remember if you have any 3rd party tweaking type program installed that may have removed the folders using a different method?

    Hey Brink thanks!
    I do have Winrar on my computer, not sure if that would affect it. Everything else I don't believe would affect it, I can send you a screenshot of all my programs if you like.

    Bynirn,

    Winrar wouldn't affect this.

    Did you move any of these folders to a different location?

    Yeah, go ahead and post a screenshot showing your "This PC" window to see if anything may stand out.

    IIRC I highlighted then on the 'This PC' tab and deleted them. I tried to ctrl+z but it didn't work.

    I didn't try moving them, I accidentally deleted them.

    Please go ahead and describe how you deleted them.

    This may help to know what may be the best way to restore them.

    I ask since there's not a "Delete" option when right clicking on the folders in "This PC".
