Andrew Amundrud Posted January 12, 2013 Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 First post here. I want to start by saying I just registered here and failed the skill testing question. The question is "what year is it?" I answered 2013 - but the correct answer was 2012 - just if any moderator reads this you can be aware.So my problem is this.I recently bought a new hard drive and have re-installed windows. I then connected my old hard drive through usb and tried to transfer a very important folder. There were a couple of error messages and now the partially transffered folder is on my new hard drive minus some very important files -- and the folder no longer exists on the old drive.Please help me recover/find these files.Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Amundrud Posted January 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2013 I downloaded recuva (my first action yesterday actually) but it didn't find the files - or I don't know how to use the software properly. What would windows have done to these files? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
