    So I play fortnite, and my geforce experience drivers record every kill, death, and win i get. I decided to use this footage to make a fortnite video, displaying all of my highlights ect. So i move all of the footage into the software. After two or three days of editing i open up the software and see that almost all of the footage has gone missing. I look back in the temp folder and only the SFK files are there, not the DVR files! My footage has just disappeared! please help! (Location of the saved footage: This PC: Local Disk (C:): users: name: Appdata: Local: Temp: Highlights: Fortnite)

    Did Disk Cleanup run? It removes “old” stuff from the system temp folder, the one you mention.

    I agree with Bill. You have your files in the Windows Temp folder and they probably got deleted because of that. The Temp folder is for temporary files that can be deleted at any time.

    You should have your working files under your Documents folder or on a separate Video drive.
