Answer #1

You would need a data recovery software…you can try this but I can’t guarantee it will work perfectly: http://funadvice.com/r/3ku3ibufr4

Answer #2

system restore does not alter/delete any personal files. you could try restoring it back to when all your files were present but i dont think that will make a difference. anyway go:

for xp: - start - all programs - accessories - system tools - system restore. once your system restore box pops up select ‘undo my last restoration.’ click next and follow messages.

for vista and windows 7: the same as xp.

see if that works. if not see colleens answer.

to be honest ive never needed to use a system restore due to computers being easy to fix. next time ask :p

Answer #3

Is it safe to use on my computer? Since I have to use system restore mainly because there was a virus on it.
