Re: HELP! 16000 files deleted my mistake

I was backing up using second copy and instead of synching to a new folder,
it simply deleted about 16000 files, after I realised what happened I
checked in recyccle bin and they were all there, i clicked "restore all" but
it didnt restore them, they just dissapeared.

Please help, how can I get my files back? will system restore help?



Don't use the computer until you try to recover the files. The more the system is used the less chance they can be recovered.
