Last night I updated to 1809, and it all went smoothly, but then I find that all my files in Documents are DELETED. Gone. Poof. This included many crucial documents and financial info. Yes, I have a backup (I think - using Windows Backup to a NAS). But this is pretty bad. Did no one in the first two rings run into this yet?
I understand (from the news) that this happens to all files in Documents that aren't synced to OneDrive. Further, the Documents folder is really an agglomeration of "Documents" from several different paths - not sure how that works, and it may or may not relate.
The link is here for EaseUS Data Recovery. Now yes, the free version only lets you recover 500MB, but if you use this code (It's mine from when I purchased it), it will let you recover unlimited data. Here it is, C8XIP–2YHL2-39UMI-QVR56-4CI6L. To download EaseUS Data Recovery Free, Go here: https://www.easeus.com/datarecoverywizard/free-data-recovery-software.htm (Note: This works with v11.5, current is 12.9 but they both work the same for what you need. If the code doesn't work with 12.9, let me know and I will get the code.)
