want to recover deleted files.

<< < (2/2)

saddlemagic:
The temp Internet files and old cookie files are unusable, by deleting them you didn't lose anything.

What browser and what version of Windows are you using?

I can take a whack at it but, I'm sure someone here knows better than me how to dig in the *hidden* files.

Have you checked your history file?

dexter:
Hi,
I'm using windows 98 and I use internet explorer to browswe the web.

The mistake I made is that I thought that everything that you delete goes straight to the recycle bin and that it could be easily restored afterwards at will.I wouldn't have been so careless and deleted so much otherwise,again I am a complete computer novice.

thanks for trying to help.

saddlemagic:
Ok. Like I said, even if you restored the Window's temp files and the old cookies they wouldn't help you. Here is an article that explains a lot and will show you how to reach the really hidden files that include the information you are looking for.

Read through it till you understand it, then see if you locate those files and scan through them.

dexter:
Thanks very much,I'll try reading that article and hopefully I'll be able to understand a little more.

Thanks again.

Borg:
