I am running XP SP2 and I have my hard drive partitioned into 4 drives: c:\,
d:\, e:\, and f:\. System Restore is set to monitor all drives. When I open
settings it says it is monitoring all drives.
I installed a new program for backups, which will remain nameless for
reasons of slander. As I was setting up the program to backup certain
directories on my "data" drive ( my e:\ drive), I decided that I was setting
it up wrong and I deleted the directories from what I thought was the backup
set. Instead, the stupid, idiotic program deleted the directories from my
drive, along with other directories in that drive that weren't even included
in the backup set. The miserable program did this with NO WARNING!!! The
files are not in the Recycle Bin, the program just wiped them.
I have never had to use System Restore, so I don't know how it works. I
have a System Restore Point just before I installed this stupid program.
Will System Restore recover all my deleted files in the e:\ drive, or does it
only recover and restore settings in the c:\ (system) drive? Does it only
do settings or will it put back all the files?
Please help, I am tearing out my hair over this.
