Group,

Never had this happen before: when I signed on this morning my desktop had "disappeared." My icons were gone, except a bare few, the background was changed, my saved PDF files were gone. It seems like the computer has reverted to an earlier state.

 

Any idea what's going on?

 

Recently I was having boot up issues and had to disable quick start because my desktop was not appearing. Disabling seemed to fix the issue. Now this.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, this is not a new issue with Win10 Windows Updates.
