    Thanks a lot MS! I did install and downloaded it before any of this warning was available. I've lost all my files from My Documents, Pictures and videos! Now, every time I reboot my computer I lose all files over again! What tha hek! Push a fix asap!!!!

    I can't believe this! As much as I try to be conservative on my downloads I assumed that an MS download would be safe!!! ARGGGGHHH!!!!! FIX THIS MS!!! iI'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS! LOST EVERTHING! CAN'T REBOOT WITHOUT LOSING ALL THE FILES I WORKED ON A G A I N!!!!

    Dude … ever here of doing file/folder backups to a separate drive?!

    Windows provides you with the tools nessary, don't have to DL anything.

    Hold on -- you bought a new PC because of a software issue???

    And PCWorld, which is a magazine, "found the memory deleted" from your hard drive? There is no memory on a hard drive.

    Could you please send me the PC you're replacing? I'll gladly pay for shipping.

    I have got 2 systems, home built, and I did the 1809 update on both and having no issues. Edge works fine as I have heard some report connectivity issues. My files are all in tact. Could very well be that I keep ALL data on a separate 4TB HDD is why my data was not affected. So it makes me wonder if a user keeps their data on the boot drive, is that where the problem lies?

    So i've already installed a completely fresh install of the new 1809 Version since i got myself a SSD. 

    Am i fine then or should i update again whenever you release the new stuff ? 

    I don't encounter any issues since its a fresh install and didn't loose any data i backed up.

    I have also upgraded without any issue. I dont think we should roll back. Because the file deletion problem occurs right after upgradation, which we have already did. So i think there should not be any issue in future.
