I purchased a game I made a copy of that disc as an image file onto my D:\Downloads\Games folder. After that, I installed the game, played it for some time, then rebooted into Ubuntu for some work. I came back to Windows only a couple of hours ago.

When I came, I found that the installed game files were missing and when I searched the installation location, it was empty.

I found that not only the installation files were missing, but also the image file, which was present less than a minute ago, was also missing now!

Please Help!!

Method 2:

Run SFC Scan



The sfc /scannow command scans all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with correct Microsoft versions.

Run the System File Checker (SFC) scan. Follow these steps:


a) Boot to the desktop view.
b) Open command prompt, right click in the left corner when the Start window appear and select command prompt (admin).
c) Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
sfc /scannow.
