Hello,

I have a user that every time their computer is shut down they loose updated information. Meaning that at the next login, documents revert back to a previous edition. They mentioned having worked on Word/Excel documents and the next time they login in the entries were missing.

The same type of issue occurs with their desktop icons. Shortcuts will just disappear.

I checked for viruses and malware - the unit came up clean. Any suggestions as to how I can resolve this problem?

No, I have not found any suggestions...

where are they saving their files to? Locally or to the network?
any software on that pc like microsoft's steady state?

Thanks for your responses.

The data is being saved locally and I have no default profile setup on this machine that would erase data. Microsoft's steady state I believe is not compatible with my OS (Windows 7)? However, I suspect some type of similar program that wants to revert the computer to a previous state.

This machine was just recently purchased at our local Best Buy when the previous unit died andwe needed an immediately replacement. I will have to take a more thorough look at what could be causing this issue.

[email protected] - Thanks for the offer. I'll have to keep you in mind if I find no resolution.
