OK, so I'm a former IT tech, and I have 5 computers with Win 8.1 in the house, and a Windows 7 home server.
One of the desktops has started *NOT* allowing its owner/user to save files to their appropriate folders, and now only allows files to be saved to the desktop.
I've thought of System Restore, but for two reasons, I have declined to use this option...
For reason one, we don't know how long ago this issue started.
And reason two, I'm not sure that this would fix the issue, given that the documents and such are on the Desktop, rather than in their respective folders...
