There are so many parts to this story now, its getting a bit tedious.
So Microsoft have issued a fix to fix the fix that should have fixed the update, I think you get the idea.
But The Windows 10 1809 update is still causing a few headaches with file operations. A new version is out there for testing by the Insiders.
Its only a problem if you let windows handle them. If you use a program like Winzip or similar then you are OK.
Personally I have always used a third party program such as Winzip, WinRar or the 7-zip (this is the one I use at the moment as it is free) to compress and uncompress files.
The initial problem with the update that deleted files seems now to be a result of many people using more than one drive in their computer.
Its now common practice to install Windows on an SSD (Solid State Drive, think really big USB drive but more like a normal hard drive) and have all the other stuff such as your programs, documents on a standard hard drive. The SSD can be accessed much faster than a conventional drive so it means a slightly faster computer. So why Microsoft haven't caught up with this way of building computers I don't know. You would have thought Microsoft would be on top of things like this.
I am sure there is more to come on this saga.
