C: Users Documents folder empty
Greetings,
I have encountered an unexpected issue and require assistance in resolving it.
Upon exploring my User folder located on the desktop (accessed through Desktop Icons), I noticed that the Documents folder contains various items.
Interestingly, when I navigate to the Documents folder using Quick Actions in a file explorer window, I also find items stored within.
However, when I access This PC > C: > Users > MyUsername > Documents through a file explorer window, the folder appears to be empty.
Could you kindly provide guidance on how to address this discrepancy?
- Cameron35Copper ContributorCorrupted file system structures or disk errors might cause the folder to become empty. Run the built-in Check Disk (chkdsk) utility.
- EverettohCopper ContributorDid you open the Show Hidden Files option on Windows 11? if it is disabled, many folders are folders are not showing up by default.
