C:\WINDOWS\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop is unavailable. If the location is on this PC, make sure the device or drive is connected or the disc is inserted, and then try again. If the location is on a network, make sure you're connected to the network or internet, and then try again. If the location still can't be found, it might have been moved or deleted. - OK
Then I click ok after that I only see recycle bin and task bar, which can not do anything background is black, so I restart by using ctrl+alt+delete and run safe mode(safe mode with network).
In safe mode it has no This PC it just has recycle bin and some program and I can't open any file location of any program after that I turn off my pc for 30 sec then open it the result is

My files also appeared to be gone, but I found a folder C>windows.old>Users> and my old user folder was in there and so were all my files.
Microsoft scam !
Microsoft Technical Support says there is no problem updating and does not solve anything when you call it.
After an hour, the verdict is: you are infested with viruses and Trojans and must pay at least 175 euros for a new certificate supposed to protect you, but not fix.
We refused and appealed to a French computer scientist: for 75 euros, the problem is solved and the computer cleaned.
And we have the assurance that the problem came from the last update.
