Windows create a folder named Windows. The available time is 10 days for the folder, so pay attention to the date. The folder locates local drive C: and is easy to navigate.

Here are the steps to start. Step 2. Step 3. Copy and paste the files that you want from each folder to a folder in Windows For more detailed steps with screenshots, refer to how to restore windows. You can recover deleted files after a Windows update by checking whether you're signed in with a temporary profile or not. If you are signed in with a temporary profile, a message will pop up at the top saying you are logged on with a temp profile.

Roaming options are currently unavailable. After this, Windows will attach an extra account to yours. Then please restart the PC and sign in again to get your account settings and data back. Step 1. Type computer management in the search box and select the Computer Management app. If the user named Administrator has a down arrow, it's been disabled. But whatever or wherever it is located, I have never lost a file that I downloaded.

And, as Leo suggests, if it is an important download, I move it to a separate, distinct folder and back it up! Makes typing these entries into various open and save dialog boxes MUCH easier. Some programs have their own default Downloads folder which is can be changed inside the program.

You can move the Downloads or any folder using Windows File Explorer. This article explains how to move the My Documents folder but it works for any folder. I moved Documents, Downloads, Pictures, Music, and Videos inside the OneDrive folder so all my personal files are synchronized on the cloud and are on all of my computers.

I have two Download folders. Other files in my Download folders are installation files for various programs. Never know if I might need or want it. Everything else I download goes into the appropriate folder. When I set up a new machine, I can often bring over the dozens of programs that the old one used; and in some cases I can use the same setup files used in the original machine.

Image backups are pretty big, and sooner or later you run out of space for the old ones…. Eventually you do, yes, but you get to choose how large a window of recoverability you want or need. This may seem simplistic but I have never deleted any downloads. I was never sure what to delete. Any ideas on how to proceed? Some you might keep move to a different folder others you might delete. Most browsers, as lew b noted, most browsers have a setting for where to download files, and even to ask where to download them.

Can you help us improve? Resolved my issue. I wondered if a symbolic link might work. There is no wrong tree it's just people trying to get help where we can. Many of us search bing or google for similar answers and up here. We aren't privy to Microsoft's insider understanding of where the truth lives or otherwise wouldn't be asking for help in the first place.

Maybe just simplify your whole answer forum to one ombudsman smart enough to direct traffic to where it's supposed to go for the right answer.

Isn't that what you advertise anyway? Because MSI was designed in almost-prehistoric times, I suppose. And never reworked. Or follow links. For MVP guys here - I understand you don't like to be treated this way. But you make yourselves to be treated like this. I could continue arguing about some crappy aspects of Windows componentization and update aspects - but I won't. I like many others have come across this thread whilst trying to find an answer to a 'real world' non ivory-tower problem.

As a result, we scheduled an update window with the client, then clicked to install the update on the primary online node, Windows Update downloaded the package and started the update. Failed update. When it then shut down the SQL Cluster service to install the update, it also took down the drive the update had installed to.

It's all well and good adopting the condescending attitude of 'it's not a windows update problem', but the touchpoint is the invocation FROM Windows Update. If Windows Update is invoking windows installer files, it should either be specifying paths to the msiexec installer, or the windows update team should be feeding this back to a central team to raise awareness of a problem.

Surely there is a central "architecture team" in Microsoft to ensure all groups are using the same approach, and to catch problems that are affecting multiple packages and operating systems?

The attidude of "contact each vendor and group in Microsoft" is ridiculous. The fix needs to be done by Microsoft, and rolled out using Windows Update! In the real world outside Microsoft, we also have lots of teams and groups. We don't fob off our customers with "we don't look after this" style excuses.

Any updates on this? I am having the same issues that Goblin C is experiencing and can't seem to find anything that helps. This is exactly how I would expect this to all work. The reality is quite different what seems to be happening is the update downloads to the C Drive, unpacks to the E drive shared and then the whole process falls to bits when the server fails over when the system attempts to fail over to another node.

This means that we have to remediate these manually. Please can you or somebody in Microsoft take some ownership of this and help us techies out. I had an issue today that may be related to this. I installed the windows update to my win 10 machine, and it put the temporary files on a RAID partition. On reboot to finish off the update the machine got stuck in a reboot loop and the only fix was pulling the RAID card after which the update was rolled back.
