My computer froze up, which isn't normal, it's never done it in 3 years. So, rebooted and...my desktop was "molested." Background image gone, most of the folders, settings in programs. Went and looked at "E" (Storage) drive and saw a slew of stuff missing. Did some searches, oh well, nothing much to do but rebuild, because (surprise, surprise) no restore points existed. So I rebuilt the desktop, to a point. New desktop. Did virus scans as well, nothing showing. Worked with it for 2 days. Came home after an hour on the 3rd day, computer was not sending a video signal to the monitor. So I rebooted...original desktop came back, everything as it was prior to the disappearance.




More than likely you had logged-in to the wrong profile.


That said, you should find out why the machine froze up.

First thing to do is check all the fans to be sure they are working and
not clogged.

As a precaution run a RAM test and hard drive diagnostic
