Neeranam Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I deleted some files by mistake and tried to recover them by using system restore. However, I can't go back to the previous months and there are no restore point in bold on the calendar. Can anyone help please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeti Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 There are several utilities to recover accidentally deleted files, which will work well if the data have not been physically overwritten on the hdd. Google will help you find what you need. Btw, system restore indexes only what happens to system files, so unless the files you accidentally deleted where in the windows or program files folder, system restore can't do a thing for you.

2008bangkok Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Unfortunately doing a system restore will not recover deleted files anyway it only restores your system to a previously benchmarked state incase of corruption when installing programs etc to check if this is turned on right click my computer>>properties then system restore and make sure turn off system restore isn't checked but you will have to get some 3rd party recovery utility..pandora is okay and free..good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daffy D Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 Shucks! Too late! You’ve sorted your problem but this may help others. The Free Super AntiSpyware is a good program in it’s own rite plus it has a repair option for various Windows utilities including Repair system Restore. Free Super AntiSpyware The repair options can be found click - Preferences – repairs tag – then scroll down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
