After Recovery

Hi,

I hope someone will take pity on me and point me in the right direction. I was using my XP/3 with IE8 and now I'm back to XP/1 with IE5 or 6!! HELP!!

I did a windows recovery by mistake on my main hard drive C. I used Recuva to get back most if not all files, they are in a external hard drive K. I opted for the Recuva to keep the same file structure on the recovered files.

My question is how do I get my recovered files on K back to where they belong on C, in the most efficient manner?

Thanks for any and all help.

A Windows recovery should only re-install Windows, all user profiles and installed programs files (except HKLM registry entries) should still be intact but not linked.

"Start", "Run", "C:\Documents and Settings\" (with quotes) and see if you old account(s) still exist.
