Building to iOS on Windows deletes the files inside the target folder

To Reproduce:
1) Build to iOS
2) Select "Desktop" or "My Documents" as the target folder
3) Look for the files that you used to have on those folders.

On OS X we ask for the name of a new folder. On Windows we ask for the name of an existing folder, and this can cause problems if a user selects a folder with existing files.

    This happened to me on Unity 2021.1.3f1.
    My Desktop has been cleaned up.

    This just happened to me also on Unity 4.3.4f so it is definitely not fixed and is a major flaw of Unity!

    Happened a few hozrs ago to me as well on 4.3.4f.
    This is a desaster. Trying to recover my files right now. Hoping that this "Bug" is going to be adressed VERY soon, all my data on my Desktop has vanished
