Hi there. If this is the wrong forum I am greatly sorry, I'm unsure where to put this.
As of late, my firefox was acting up and I assumed it was a part of firefox, not my computer.
I think restarted my computer at one point today and a few things happened.
1. Before everything loaded on my desktop, the screen was white for a extended period.
2. When everything DID load, half my icons and files were missing.
So I figured MAYBE I had a virus. Did a system restore and then did a computer scan in safe mode to ensure it was all removed and voila, problem seems to be gone.
Except now I'm still missing some files. Of the 65 files/folders/shortcuts on my desktop, roughly 5 are missing for some reason. Thank lord I have a before-shot picture of what my desktop looked like, so I know exactly what is missing. I've looked everywhere and cant find the files that have dissapeared.
My question is -> How do I recover the "missing" files and will the white screen happen everytime I restart/shut down my computer?
