You should store profiles somewhere that if you have to reinstall windows and save data, it does not get erased.

I lost all my bookmarks - Windows 10 sucks and all of a sudden was a black screen after login, even in safe mode. Tried numerous things to recover.

Storing data down in the windows app data area rots. I have all my Windows Explorer favorites but none of my firefox bookmarks following the re-install.
