We recently reported that a recent Windows 10 update (KB4532693) was causing serious issues and deleting people’s data<\/a>, and Microsoft has now acknowledged that this is a big problem.<\/p>\n

Windows Latest spoke to several Microsoft employees<\/a> in the support team, with staff revealing that “Microsoft is aware of this known issue and our engineers are working diligently to find a solution for it.”<\/p>\n

As we reported, Windows 10 KB4532693 was released on February 11, and while it was supposed to fix several security issues, it also introduced some rather worrying problems.<\/p>\n
Many people took to the internet to complain that since installing the update, their Windows 10 desktop and Start menu were set to default – so any wallpapers, icons and shortcuts they had set or created had disappeared.<\/p>\n
It also began emerging that some people’s files that were kept on the desktop were getting removed – which is a much more serious issue.<\/p>\n
The fact that Microsoft has finally acknowledged this issue is a promising step, and the company is actively looking at way to fix this mess.<\/p>\n
According to Windows Latest<\/a>, Microsoft’s support team were able to replicate the issue, and have found a fix.<\/p>\n
How to fix Windows 10 file deletion problem<\/h3>\n
It appears that Microsoft’s team has found a way to restore the files. Windows 10 is for some reason making a temporary user account where those files are kept. By creating a new local account, then transferring the data from the temporary account to the new one, you should get your data back.<\/p>\n
This is a convoluted method which requires messing around with user accounts – especially local accounts that Microsoft usually tries to dissuade you from doing (and instead create one using your Microsoft account), and it’s not clear if this will help everyone.<\/p>\n
As we mentioned, some people are finding that their files are completely missing, and they are unable to find them in the temporary user account.<\/p>\n
So, while this fix may help some people, we hope Microsoft is working on a more thorough fix that it will release ASAP.<\/p>\n
