ishan_rulz Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 If you have done System Restore, AFAIK, there is an option to "undo" Simplicity is hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kroozer Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 System Recovery reverts your system to original condition, just like when you took the software / pc home from the store. You are now starting from scratch. All your personal stuff is gone unless files were saved in C:\Backup. Edit: I have performed several recoveries from D: partition on this Vista pc and each time the system saved my personal files. I don't remember if that was an option or automatic.

kroozer Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 that's depressing All may not be lost. After my first system recovery I thought I lost some personal files but soon discovered them after searching. Why not try that? Edit: See post 8 below.

jean1955 Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 I have no idea how to do that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kroozer Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Start → computer → (C:) → Backup. Open it up and see what's in there. Edit: I seem to remember some or all personal files were still safe under User\kroozer and I didn't have to move them out of Backup. Maybe Backup was just a depository for System Files. It all happened about 9 months ago and can't remember the details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
