I "upgraded" to windows 10 about a month ago. Up until yesterday....no problems. Then I came into the computer room to check some online banking chores. The first thing I notice is my desktop wallpaper is gone. Windows 10 is acting like I had just installed it on a new computer. Things are missing. No Favorites.....No pictures......A lot of desktop icons are gone......One new icon for a program I've never heard of before.....Some games are gone....ArmA 3, World of Warships.....Internet Explorer.........and probably more I have not discovered yet. I start checking online for an answer. I found out that Windows 10 is designed to permanently delete apps and files that it deems subject to malware, what it thinks might be pirated games, and more games, especially games, WITHOUT REQUESTING PERMISSION OR GIVING NOTIFICATION THAT IT IS ABOUT TO DO SO. You have been warned. wallpaper-797257.jpg

It did it again today. It is logging me in with a temp profile which means when I shut down, everything that I saved...favorites, files, desktop, settings ect. will be deleted. And when I log on it will be like it was when I logged on today.....nothing but a blank profile. Fortunately on the C drive there is an old user folder with a lot (but not all) of my old stuff on it. But it will not let me restore that user profile. And I have just read that I need to back this up to an external storage device or it could be the next thing to go.
I have no pirated games. Only legit games and files.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Outside of Microsoft, nobody knows whether Win10 is having more initial problems than Win7. Everybody seems to agree it's improved over Win8.
Just like news reports, the million things that work as intended aren't worth mentioning.
