Shilpa26 · Aug 3, 2006

H,

Please I need some help desparately, and urgently! I dont know what got into me, but I have deleted a co-administrators User account from the control panel and all the files with it have gone too!
Systems restore was not turned on and hence I cannot restore it to original settings either.
Please help me locate my files. They were saved under my documents in the user name.
I would be eternally greatful to anyone that helps me!!!

Would first go to control panel and recreate the user account ...then do a search for the documents ...when found move them to the shared folder.

Thank you so much. That was simple enough. I asked everyone and they all exaggerated telling me I had lost the files permanently!
Goes to show how little people actually know!

Thank you again so much, I haves searched for all my file types and found them all. Is there any tips for restoring the folders itself? Or do I have to arrange them all again?

Not sure of your last question ....but glad the first got resolved ...you can log in as that user, and depending on the folder and where you want it (if just on the root drive - C ....then right click that drive and choose new / folder ....name it and then open those docs. and resave to that folder / or just move them to the folder.
If this isn't the question, let us know.
