Captures folder missing

Question

So I was an idiot and accidentally deleted a folder on my computer called "Captures," which appeared in my "Videos" folder. Turns out, this seemingly useless folder is the same one my Xbox One DVR uses to record and store my recorded game videos.

I've emptied the recycle bin. Can't get it back. And creating a new "Captures" folder didn't help. My Xbox App refuses to save any captured videos. When I try to download them, it crashes.

I've followed a couple of tutorials that told me to regain the file by going into "Properties" and selecting "restore default location." This doesn't work. When I open the folder where the DVR should be saving things, it takes me to "C:local/users/appdata/temp," which isn't where the tutorials say it should be, and there's no "Locations" option.

I use downloaded game clips in my cousin's YouTube channel, as well as my own. Now I don't have a way to download those vids to my computer for editing.

Anybody have a fix for this?

Answer 1

There shouldn't be a need to do a system restore.  That is BS.  

What is the registry key that holds that file location?
