Photo and music files lost when I went to Windows 7 from Windows 10
I updated to Windows 7 to 10. I found I couldn't handle Windows 10 and tried to go back to 7 (within 30 days). A problem with my computer stopped back to 7. The only option that I could see was coming back to my installation origanel of the computer which came with 7. It was stated that my current files would be back. However, these files did not come back, even if my email in outlook.com did go back. Missing important files are my music and photo files. How can I get back them? Either by the way, I tried to back up these files on an external hard drive but 10 Windows did not recognize, so I tried to come back without backup.
I'd appreciate any help I can get.
Thank you, Harper Smith

Original title: loss of files, music and photos
Take a look at these two folders and their subfolders:
- C:\Users
- C:\Windows.old
BTS, do not backup important files regularly for example (weekly), things risky.
An upgrade of the operating system without having a thoroughly tested external backup is a high risk.
Make two changes of BONE without tested backup takes extreme risks.
An external USB backup drive costs less $ $60.

Windows Easy Transfer has not transferred images and music files.
I have upgraded from Vista Home premium to Windows 7 Professional and none of my photos or music files have been transferred. I had to do a clean install, everything went well at the end of the Vista of the transfer, but no pic files or music files came with it. Is there a place I can look for them or they're just gone and I'm screwed by Microsoft?
Never mind. I found them. They were the Windows.old folder on the C: drive.

Can photos and music will be loaded into the memory of the dashboard?
Can photos and music will be loaded into the memory of the dashboard?
Hello Tom,
The internal memory of the Dash device is not accessible to the user. Therefore, pictures and music files cannot be uploaded to the internal memory of the dashboard.
However, the USB port on the Dash unit allows you to view photos or listen to music stored on a USB key.

Hi GeneVachon,
1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?
You can try a system restore to a previous point where you have not experienced the problem.
Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

My photos and music libraries are mixed up and can be arranged
I wanted to improve the performance of my computer to defragment my hard drive. After that I did, my photos and music mГЄlГ.

All My Documents, pictures, videos and music files are does not
All My Documents, pictures, videos and music files are does not and I can't access the files and I did nothing to them but when I try and click on it, it says "music.library - ms no longer works, the library can be removed safely from your computer.» Records that have been added will not be affected. I understand that they won't be affected, but how am I supposed to recover all my files?
Hey Kwame,
I understand that you receive an error saying music.library - ms no longer works.
Please answer:
(1) did you do changes on the computer before the show?
In the libraries folder, you will notice that the icons of the folders have changed to something else. This clearly indicates that Windows 8 libraries are no more work and corrupted.
To resolve this issue, follow these steps:
(a) press Windows + E to open Windows Explorer, and then click library.
(b), select all the libraries with which you are faced with a question and select Delete.
(c) click Yes to confirm.
(d) after the deletion, right-click on the icon libraries in the left navigation pane and click on restore default libraries.
(e) in the first attempt, default icons have been restored but if you are unable to access the libraries of Windows 8, delete and restore again to go back to work.
Note: Deleting of a library does not delete the contents of the included folders. However, you need to add or include your folders manually, if necessary.
Kind regards

Yes, this is why I recommended that you upgrade to the latest version.
