Lost files for pictures and docs

I installed window8 and now is says my files for pic and docs are gone can't add any new . Any help with this ? Thnx Wayne

Hi Wayne,

When you say your files and pictures are gone can you give us some idea as to what happened.

Was it suddenly?

Is your pictures folder empty and all you documents gone?

What do you mean when you say you cannot add any new ones?

check c:\windows.old folder
