All My Files literally disappeared from Finder

[coldjeanzzz]

I have no idea how this happened. I wasn't fooling around with anything, I just opened up Finder and now it's not showing in the favorites tab on the left. When I go to "Go" in the menu bar "All My Files" is also greyed out. I checked in preferences and it's still checked to show upon opening Finder and it's still checked to show in the Favorites section

This Mavericks update is turning out to be quite the drag...

What happens if you uncheck it and check it again? Strange bug.

I logged out and checked to see if the Guest account was affected, it was working fine there. I logged back into my account and it was now showing up in Finder, however it was still missing from the side panel. I went into preferences and it was unchecked somehow, I checked it back and now everything is working but yeah this is definitely a bug.

It's hard to believe this is the GM release, I'm already uncovering so many things wrong

Did you (perhaps) exclude your HD/SD in the privacy settings in Spotlite Preferences?

You may click HIDE button on the right of FAVOURITE?

In my case, I wrongly clicked the Hide button on the right hand side of FAVOURITE. This function does not show up until you drag the mouse on that position. That's why I could not figure out for a while why all my favourite folders disappear in one day. Now it showed up when I drag the mouse on the Show button.
Not sure is that your case?

Sup. I managed to solve this problem by taking out my files from time machine. Lucky guess for the hide thing too, eh?
