Chaps,

A quickie.

I have a USB memory stick, which has folders on it, and files in those folders.

I just seem to have lost all the files in one folder. I'm not sure how - I certainly didn't delete them. It (literally) seems that I looked up and they had gone.

Other files in other folders look to be fine.

Is there any way I can get these files back? They didn't go into the recycle bin, is there anywhere else I can look.

Thanks.

There are loads of programs that may be able to recover your data. The same happened to my girlfriend and this tool worked a treat. It cost $50 but well worth every penny!!!!

Chaps,

Thanks ... I tried "The Undelete", which will show you what it can un-delete for free, and will actually go ahead and recover the files if you pay for it. It didn't show the critical two files, which was a bit of a loss, so I am assuming that it won't get them back.

Bummer.

I'll have to recreate them, I fear.

Thanks for your input tho'.


Oli.
