UNSOLVED
Lost Files
I need help finding files saved on my computer. They were deleted when a system restore was performed. They are not in recycle bin. I cannot do a system restore to go to previous pt as I do not want to lose the recently added files and cannot do a back up of them for several reasons. I am wondering. Is there a way to recover files from hard drive. I feel these files are here someplace just not sure how to undelete them if I can at all. :emotion-9:
Well let me explain better. It was a Cache and Temp Delete to uninstall a program then was told to reinstall this program. I did and noticed the files missing after a system restore. You see I was told to do this to unistall a program completely then to just reinstall it. There were logs... my business chat logs. Those are missing. I followed the path using search and path. They are gone now. These are very crucial to my business. I was told that the system restore did this but feel the deletion of cache and temp did it. Thanks for all your help.:emotion-1:

Hello,
If you know the names of the files you can perform a search. :emotion-21:

A Windows system restore will not delete files - if you restored the system using a quick-restore, whatever was on the disc was overwritten and will be all but impossible to recover.
