Automated Windows 10 updates deleted all my documents and files

I have had the exact same issue which has taken me days to just get here; an Auto update, which I was unable to stop and then I lost all my Office 365 suite plus ALL my important business files, artwork, photos and pretty much everything that hadn't been auto save back to Sptemebr 2019.

I am devastated; I can't find valuable contacts, I am not getting emails to Outlook, basically life as I knew a few days ago at the beginning of July is completely changed. It's like I have been destroyed by Covid. It is unacceptable l that we pay for these products only to find we are subject to this type of treatment.

I seek compensation and expect a full restore of my system

Please respond to me immediately so that I can carry on my business; it is tough enough at this time of Covid without this srot of irrepesbcble corporate behaviour going on

Thanks Simon

Hi guys! I finally found a solution to this!

It wont work if you have only one user accounts. So if you have an other person using the pc and is an administrator go to the account and delete your account. You need to delete your account because the account the update was installed only has an effect but other users don't so delete it. But before you do so if you want to save your data go file explorer and go to the  Windows C: drive go to users and find your account name and go to every file type section. Before that make a new folder on which you will store your data. Insert all your data into the new file and save it to the account. That is how you backup your data just in case if your going to delete it. After deleting make another one for yourself! And go the users file and find the file in the account you stored all your data and put it into your account! It is a long process but never give up! ;)

I have never been able to sign-in!!! will not accept my e-mail or password. Rather than fix the problem I only get a code that can only be used one time. now with only a temp. profile I soon will be locked out again- that is no way to run a company!!

I am in a state of shock. I was already using windows 10 and last night automated updates started without allowing me to stop them. This morning my computer is cleaned out with all thosevery important document deleted!!! Microsoft can do that??? How can I recover them ALL?????

The same thing happened to me and I am now frustrated.  All my examinations were deleted! I'm a student ! This costs me a lot!
