accidentally deleted all my songs!

[Nick]

Hello,
Last night a friend of mine did a full scan and it came up
with several "threats" one of which was Kazaa. Since she
no longer uses it anymore i told her it was okay to
"remove" this threat. Little did we know that by doing so
it removed all of her mp3's in the "My Shared Folder"
folder of Kazaa in which all of her songs were located.
Does anyone know of anything we can do to get those songs
back? We tried using the system restore point that was
created right before she removed the files but the files
are still gone after restoring to that point. Any Help
would be very greatly appreciated!

You can try the "PC Inspector File Recovery" program to
get your deleted data back

Hi there,

Doesn't sound real flash, reckon you'll need to use
an 'undelete' app to recover those files.

If you have a backup then you are in luck, otherwise as was suggested you
will need to run and undelete program of one kind or another with limited
luck. System Restore, as you found out does not recover data files.

Is this per chance Nick P.?

I had a similar experience when I installed a new version
of Lotus 1-2-3. It taught me a lesson: always back up
data files before doing any install that can affect them.

At the time, I thought I was too smart to let anything
happen to my files. The Lotus 1-2-3 install program
displayed a message, "OK to reallocate the work file
folder" or something to that effect. I said yes, not
realizing that a spreadsheet containing several years of
car maintenance information (date, mileage, service,
cost) was in the work file folder, along with all my
Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheets. Of course I lost everything.
