Multiple files lost from external hard drive after saving them using Windows 10

I have upgraded to Windows 10 recently.
Everything works well except this one thing that happened couple times already.
All the files that I saved to my external hard drive when I was using Windows 10 disappeared when I tried to open them again in a different machine (Windows 7).
They can no longer be found even when I go back to Windows 10 and tried to find them.
I am sure they are saved properly.
I checked and confirmed that they are located in the correct location after they are all saved.
I used the "Eject" external hard drive function and remove the drive only when Windows 10 promoted "safe to remove".

Any idea?
