Hello to all,
Well, I've really done it this time. I went under "user accounts" in my Windows XP control panel and thought I would clean up my computer by deleting an account I THOUGHT was inactive. Turns out this was where I initially had created a VERY important file entitled "Kimberlys Documents". In a nutshell, this contained not only cherished photos, but also my entire Bachelor and Masters program papers...including the beginning of a future thesis. (Okay, for an MSW I sure am an idiot, I know!) Now HERE'S the kicker...I had my PC's "System Restore" turned off and now have absolutely NO restore point!!!
Please Help Me to retrieve this folder, if at all possible!
Thank you in advance,
Kimberly K.---the very unhappy camper.
