| 335436 | 2005-03-18 17:52:00 | First, don't add in or delete any more files from the directory the files that you shift-delete. Then, wait for some other PressF1 memebers to help you. Good luck on ya. | Renmoo (66) | ||

| 335438 | 2005-03-18 18:42:00 | Try a search for the file name.It will be available somewhere if you have not closed down and restarted. | kjaada (253) | ||
| 335439 | 2005-03-18 18:51:00 | try one of these apps: www.testmyfirewall.com From previous comments on this forum, the rest2514 Restoration program seems to work well. It also runs off a floppy so you don't run the risk of overwriting your deleted files when installing it. Here is the author's home page (www.geocities.jp). And, welcome to PressF1 pcspaz. :) |

| 335440 | 2005-03-18 20:21:00 | pcspaz Have you looked in your recycle bin? If you deleted from the C drive it will probably be there (unless, of course, you have emptied it). Oxie (Lyn) |

| 335443 | 2005-03-18 20:29:00 | Have you looked in your recycle bin? If you deleted from the C drive it will probably be there (unless, of course, you have emptied it).Unfortunately, the combination of Shift key + Delete does not send the file to the recycle bin, but immediately deletes it from the system. You have to be careful when using that delete option as there is no chance to change your mind once you have said "Yes" to the confirmation of deletion. Murphy's Law dictates that you change your mind 0.5 seconds after clicking Yes to confirm ... It is to be used very carefully. |
