Folder on desktop is gone
OMG this folder contains information from 3 years of research. About the same time that this disappeared I had clicked on a "shared" desktop with a cryptic name which I didn't create; it's listed under DEVICES.
Clicking on it seems to have caused it to disappear. I still have another one under shared, also with cryptic name which I didn't create (why are they here anyway)
