I know there is a way that you can like set your computer back like to lets say saturday at 11 or something like that if anyone knows how let me know (i already looked in the recycle bin and nothing) plz help asap will send creds
What you need to do is perform a system restore. Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore Just follow the instructions there and you be done in no time.
That is what you need to do unless there are no restore points in which case the songs are gone. System Restore is a useful tool but it will also bring back the files your dad deleted.
so I slide the slider to the right..then click apply? so far it just says Local disk......Monitering Merged Post: wow...no restoartion points.. I just relized this. Not only is my itunes folder gone. But EVERY SINGLE FOLDER IS GONE. there are the main folders "my pics" "my vids" etc that come when u install windows, but thats it. ALL MY FILES ARE GONE. ALL MY PSDS ARE GONE. EVERYTHING. The only things left are programs. There has GOt to be some way in hell that I can get any of this back. Please I will do anything, is there some one that can some how read my hard drive and find out or something, like geek squad.. god damn you guys It cant be gone..it just cant.
What did you do? I'm guessing that you didnt choose the date you wanted it restore back to, or you picked the first restoration point there and applied it. So right now your back at; probably when you first got your computer. All you need to do is go back to System Restore and when the first screen pop-ups up, select "Undo my last restoration" and apply it. It will take you back, undoing your last restore.
Okay. I ran the restore and I thought today was the 17 and it said 16 so I did it and well, ofcourse it was today. So I undid it. Now im back where I was 20 minutes ago. IF I try undo again it says same thing- sunday, april 16
which operating system are you using? XP or what. When you select restore to a earlier time there should be the dates in blue which tells you what you have installed and if you got the windows update. You didn't have to go all the way to the first restore date like Korupt said. Do what Korupt says and then choose a restore date that is a couple of days before the 15th of April or a earlier date.
so u undid the first system restore which is the checkpoint? If you click on the 3rd and restore and none of the other checkpoints come back then basically all files are gone. *always back up files you want to keep in a cd-r*
---- man..why wont it let me go back a month. is there any company or something that can read hard drives and mabye restore it? mah I cant believe this ----. This is basically my career being deleted. I dont know what the ---- im going to do
