Re: folder recovery?

Unfortunately file system corruption and hardware failure are a part of any operating system. Tough lesson to learn but you can't operate without full backups of anything you can't afford to lose no matter the OS. You might give one of the drive recovery services a shot.

Thanks, Dave, for the explanation. I hadn't expected win2000 to
modify the disk without giving me a chance to reject the "chkdsk"
cleanup. In each case, a question was asked as to whether or not
"conversion" should take place, but, then an automatic answer of "yes"
was entered and zero time was given for me to respond. About 28 such
messages and replies flashed before the screen - to my dismay -
leaving no chance to stop it. Even though there may have been lost
pointers or something, I know much of the content was good because I
had recently used a lot of it. Now I can't get ANY of it. I assume,
from your response, that there is no utility to "undo" those ".chk"
files.

I only recently started using win2000 (over win98se), and this makes
me wish I had stayed with win98se.
I am wondering what other nasty unrecoveable suprises win2000 has in
store for me I had assumed that system desingers would ALWAYS allow
yout to decline automatic changes to your harddrive on startup..

Thanks again, littleberry
