That's worse than I thought!

Maybe One Drive related as I disabled it here as an unwanted annoyance and the small amount of unimportant documents I actually have in Microsoft's folders on the three PC's I updated remained intact, anything important is on different drives and backed up twice on external drives, as are the system drives as well, so wouldn't have been much of an issue here anyway.

Going to be many though that won't even know what a backup is, if nothing else it may encourage those affected to find out how to backup stuff properly.

That I wouldn't believe if it happened to me !!! If it wasn't connected in some way, windows wouldn't even know about it's existence in another disk/partition.

So far it appears that if you survived the upgrade intact you are OK.

Don't know how, but I updated both machines and am operating like a well oiled Marine. My natural paranoia is nagging on me bad about it though. What if …

At least I have Macrium with 1803 latest, for both setups if the "What if …" does blow up in my face, circle around and bite me in my rear.

I just HAD to... (Kinda badly shopped but hey...)

Windows support has a solution: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...-after-upgrade

If you still can’t find your files, you may need to restore them from a backup

Then all you have to work with is grpedit. Do you remember how you disabled them the last time?

No

Info:

If you have files in your Docs folder still, none were deleted.
