Hi guys,
A few days ago I upgraded to Windows 10, but today I tried to use Guest account, but didn't find it.
Where did it go? I had a few documents there..

Anyone knows?

Right click start icon, control panel, user accounts, manage accounts... if it is there - fine, if not - you'll probably have to create it.

As I know it has been disabled in WIN10 by default (but as derez said, you can create a new one)

Thanks.
Then my files are gone?
I upgraded from 8.1 where I had the guest account with some files and they didn't alert me that I may lose the guest fikes.

I guess the folder is still under c:\users\guest or something.

they usually leave the users folder alone and rename the old windows folder.

If you dont find it on c:\users\guest you should find it under c:\windows.old\users\guest...
