My Documents completely deleted off my computer.

Could you write it all out again please, doesn't seem to be working.

The first time I had this:
c:\users>for /f "tokens=*" %a in ('dir /b /s /ad "%systemdrive%\documents"') do explorer "%a"

last time I posted this:
for /f "tokens=*" %a in ('dir /b /s /ad "%systemdrive%\documents"') do explorer "%a"

They are quite different. Is the latter still not working? It takes several minutes

This came up abbad8a1cb5f35a40c71c3a615280fa3.png

I expected that on some folders - did any other folders appear? If so, was one of them the one that went missing.

Nope just the ones i showed before, as i said i think it is completely deleted of my computer.

Indeed. It is in fact deleted.
You said in the original post that you moved it. So you must have a backup on the other drive, right?

I have a windows image backup which i did right at the beginning when building my computer? Is there a way of creating a new documents folder or anything?

Yes, back on that picture you had: 43cfc3be1d1c1efe300816f77707cb9c.png
You see where it says include a folder? Click that.
It will open a new window. This should be the folder of all the folders in your useraccount. If you don't have one labeled "My Documents," right-click on a blank area, go to new, then click folder. Rename it to My Documents, and then click the button that says "include folder".

Back at the properties window, click the new folder you just made to highlight it, then click "set save location". Press OK.

Ok i'll try now thanks for your help so far :)

I didn't have to even use the back up i just simply added the folder on the D drive to the properties. I'm sorry for all the questions hopefully this should work as my normal "My Documents" folder. I should of really clicked include folder etc thanks.
