Recover Deleted Files - Comments Page 3

i did system restore. but i 3 hard drives( i think drive c,d,e) then my system was restored but my files on drive e were gone. and everytime i open it, it says : "E:\ is not accessible. Error performing inpage operation" wat should do?? :((

when i was trying to scan my files from viruses, all my files are deleted,my mp3,images etc.what im gonna do?

EDITOR'S NOTE: What anti-virus program did you use?

I run a recording studio using Pro Tools. I use a 250 GB Fantom Titanium external HD. A client of mine was trying to upload a mp3 version of a beat to my drive so they could record their vocals over it. In the process my system completely froze. So, I turned my computer off without unhooking the USB of my external hard drive. Once I rebooted all of my Pro Tools files (of every client I have) were gone off of my external hard drive. How do I recover them?

EDITOR'S NOTE: There's a good chance that the files are still there, and only the file pointers are missing. A good file recovery tool, such as Restoration, should help you recover them.

a note to mike and the editor.. you can right click and delete the recycle bin. your deleting the icon . the process is still there all you need to do is go into your taskbar and startmenu options, go to desktop icons and check the box... but in the editors defense.. it does promp you telling you you are deleteing only an icon, and it tells you right there how to get it back.. i know this not only because i am a certified tech but also because i have done it a good many times not thinking :)

EDITOR'S NOTE: On my system, right-clicking on the Recycle Bin brings up a menu without the Delete option.

EDITOR'S NOTE: There's a link in the article for Data Rescue, for Macs.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Ummmmm, yes. Did you read the article?

Hi, I have a memory stick (i.e., one that you plug into the USB port) that has suddenly stopped workging and I wonder if it is possible to recover files from there.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Try plugging it into another computer. If that doesn't work, I'd assume the files are lost.

You confirmed my thoughts about online storage. I find it exhausting and expensive. What about X Drive? They have been around for awhile.

Hi, I accidentally deleted the folder "service" from the control panel... I had a copy of it on my desktop after a reinstall (I didnt do), and I wanted to delete it. I used the del command in a dos to delete it, thinking it would only delete symbolic links, but it actually emptied the folder, even in my control panel... I tried to use different restore softwares, but i cant find them. Is there a way to reinstall folder from the control panel?

Is there any way to recover files that have been opened from a flash drive on your computer if you no longer have that drive? I ask this because my flash drive was pretty much destroyed recently . . . the part that you stick into the computer (the male end) got broken off the rest of it (I have a Lexar flash drive, 1gb), and we can reattach it. I'm close to a nervous breakdown, since I have no backups and they are very precious files.

EDITOR'S NOTE: If the files reside only on your flash drive, then simply opening them on your computer will not transfer a copy to your hard drive. You can probably get the flash drive repaired, but it may be costly.
