:slight_smile: Hello @Phuongw_Anhh, and welcome to the forum!

It sounds that you are unable to find your pictures created using Krita.
Unfortunately, you did not name your operating system (OS), for instance Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, Haiku. But okay, usually you can search in every OS via the file manager, for example Windows Explorer or macOS Finder, using wildcards. So, please open your file manager and search for *.kra on your complete hard disk, this should find each and every file you created with Krita, at least if you used Krita’s own file format KRA, if you used something else as file format, you can exchange the kra behind the *. with the extension of the used format, for instance PNG or JPG so that you then search for *.JPG or *.PNG which will then find any picture in the respective file format.
In the case that you know parts of the file names you search for, you can search for instance for *mypicture*.KRA to find any picture with the Krita file name extension KRA where a part of the file name is mypicture.

In case of further questions, feel free to ask.
We need the name of your operating system.
We also need the version number of your Krita, and from where you got your copy of Krita.

I will be back in about an hour.

I changed your post title to something that might attract help for you once you answer the questions about your operating system.

Please let us know if this new title does not accurately describe the problem.

Krita files aren’t saved inside Krita, they’re saved on your computer.
