The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  A full system recovery crushes a large number of files.  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace more data you want to retrieve.  He slave on another PC and launch the recovery of this PC.  Even now you have definitely lost some of them if you use the same PC and as a result of the recovery.  If you can not do this (slave on another PC), you run the risk of overwriting the data with every action you do on the PC (but you may still be able to recover some or most or even all files - it's a matter of luck).

Only you can decide if the data is important enough to take the PC to an expert data recovery to recover files (they will have better programs and hardware to do that none of us do, and I've provided above).  Do NOT go to the Geek Squad or one of these centers of store-, they generally don't know what they are doing - it take for expert data recovery.  It will cost you a little and they generally offer no guarantees.  The decision is yours.

Frankly, I don't think that you will be able to recover a lot given the circumstances, but it's worth a try (and almost the only option you have in more expensive professional who may do better).

Good luck and I hope this helps!

  • TouchSmart 610 1150y: No Audio output device is installed after the system recovery

    I recently experienced an issue that forced me to do a system recovery. I upgraded Windows 10 months passed without problem from 7. After saving, I did the recovery. The Beats Audio System will not work now and the system indicates device output Installed in no..

    I tried to download drivers without impact. I also uninstalled the audio controller (IDT High Definition Audio CODEC) via Device Manager and rebooted him the system. Doing so resulted in a warning on the unit triangle. When I try to download software updates for it, it starts to download the driver, and then sends an idicating error message that a driver has been found but the device does not work. The audio worked perfectly until I ran the recovery, so it seems not to be a hardware failure.

    Can you suggest a way to solve this problem or to diagnose the problem?  Thanks for any help you can provide!

    Mark

    Finally! I found a solution! A Google search for a Codec IDT pilot lost in Windows 10 randomly suggested another thread here on the HP Forum. After several suggestions, is affected:

    1. Select IDT High Definition Audio CODEC on Device Manager.

    2. Select the driver tab.

    3. click on Update Driver... button.

    4. Select-> Browse my computer for driver software.

    5. Select-> let me collect a list of drivers for devices on my computer.

    6. Select Audio device high definition (not IDT high def...)  "This is important). and click Next.

    Displays warning message, but the answer Yes.

    7. Windows has updated your driver software.

    Key is step 6.

    Perfect! Worked like a champ!  Problem solved... just took me two weeks to find.

  • Update Windows XP after the system recovery

    I had to do a recovery of the system due to the victory of missing files. What I have to do the updates one at a time and is there a way to determine where to start? Norton will not install unless I've got sp2 which was one of the missing files. There is no firewall protection in the restored files, so I won't be on the net longer than necessary.

  • Strange question, craps remaining after the system recovery on my windows xp desktop.

    Strange question, thank you for your comments!

    I just reinstalled windows xp on my old HP desktop HP Pavilion Media Center TV m7334n PC computer using the recovery on D partition. I expect that the installation would be a clean install. At the beginning of the recovery, I noticed the message on the screen saying that the backup was in process. After recovery, I could start my computer and realized that used disk space C was still as the space of C drive used before the restoration. I also noticed that there was a lot of pre-installed programs appears on the list of start - all programs. I never installed them after recovery. Many of them work. I expect a CLEAN installation. It is not clean at all.

    Furthur inspection on the system to reveal problems:

    1. I noticed that there are so many records under the program folder program files on the C drive (I have only one program fichiersDossier). I guess that the recovery process copied evething under my original forder of program files in this folder. I don't have anything I can use most of them because the links were scattered on a large number of them (I can't run the program of either start - all programs or folder directly). Is not at all a CLEAN installation.

    2. the recovery process also copy my document in the folder as well original user, see below to understand which is the original file of the user.

    3. originally, in my computer, I have two users (or 3 including comments), we came to HP-administrator with the computer, is another family.  On the computer I just recover, there are 3 users accompanying the recovery. They are administrator, hp-administrator and guest. I've renamed the family administrator. Now, under systems and settings, I see the user plus two records. They are administrator-YOUR-4DACD0EA75 and hp-administrator-YOUR-4DACD0EA75. YOUR 4DACD0EA75 sounds familiar. I can remember that I was lazy and that it has not changed the computer name during installation after recovery. YOUR 4DACD0EA75 is actually the default name given to me during the installation. I don't like this at all, so I changed the name of the computer and restarted the computer. The name of the computer was changed after the restartup, but ugly folder names remain the same and I can not even rename the ugly file name.

    I had done some restorations system on this computer before, I never noticed a problem like this before.

    1 have we seen this before?

    2 I forgot something?

    3. can I safely delete the original user profiles and records under the program folder program files?

    4. can I do a system recovery really CLEAN? I understand that the crapware will be installed during the system recovery. I'm ok with that, what I want is my pc to be recovered to the original state of the plant.

    5. I can read is no longer my 1st disc restore dvd. Is it possible to make another set of recovery disks?

    Thanks for reading my long message!

    1 have we seen this before? I saw something similar and other relief to be fixed.

    2 I forgot something? I don't think so. Just do an another hard drive recovery. Try again is all I can think about.

    3. can I safely delete the original user profiles and records under the program folder program files? I would'nt mess with her. Just do another hard drive recovery system.

    4. can I do a system recovery really CLEAN? I understand that the crapware will be installed during the system recovery.

If you can repair the disk, make a copy or 2 whole and store them in a safe place. Otherwise, you will have to order them from somewhere on the Web... as a popular auction site.

  • How to stop Windows 7 opening 'imported photos and videos' after each scan an image?

    I'm scanning multiple images and after EACH scan, Win7 opens a new window "Imported pictures and videos", despite the window being open 20 times already...

    In the import dialog box, deselection 'Open Windows Explorer after import' has no effect.  After each import, a Windows Explorer window appears showing me that the directory of the file has been imported to (i.e. "imported photos and videos").  Worse still, this happens even if another this window is already open - so if (for example), I scan 10 pictures, I have 10 windows explore open all showing this same directory (unless I close them I will).

    It's boring, clutters the taskbar and takes expire have to close each window - how are we going to stop Win 7 "Imported photos and videos" opening after each scan?

    Hello Carl,

    You attempted to change the option to "Open the Windows Explorer after import" while connected as another user on the computer to see if the problem persists?
    Also, have you tried to scan using a different computer to see if we can isolate the problem to a machine?
    If you have checked these things and the behavior has not changed, I suggest to leave feedback for the Windows team at this link as an option behaves as expected:
  • After the system recovery, installation of MS Office 2003 says incorrect product key!

    I ran System Recovery on my HP Pavilion a465c (prod # 160A DT) with the home edition of XP preinstalled.

    Carefully, I entered the correct product key for the Windows XP Home edition on the computer sticker and the messge comes back as 'incorrect product key.

    I tried also to carefully enter the correct product key on my registry (which is different from the sticker product key) and it is also as "incorrect."

  • After full system recovery, wireless and audio no longer work on R61i!

    Hi all

    I recently did a full system recovery on my thinkpad r61i and restarted my computer, I noticed that my wireless network no longer appears under my network connections. The only thing that appears is my local network. In addition, my sound no longer. Is it possible that somehow my wireless has been deleted during the system recovery? What should I do about restoring wireless on my computer, but also the sound? Advice would be useful! In addition, the switch wireless on my computer is on.

    I solved the problem. I went on the Lenovo Web site and downloaded the Wi - Fi drivers and audio missing.

  • Could not find photos and documents after reinstlling windows

    I have rInstaller windows with the provided installation disc with a computer, after installing all my programs, photos and documents had disappeared. How can I find them?

    Depending on how you did the re-setup, they may or may not be recoverable.  The recovery disc that comes with a computer generally makes a boot that erases the hard drive clean of EVERYTHING before you reinstall the system to the factory conditions.  If all of your data and programs are gone, then a new installation is almost certainly what happened.  When you have made you we gave the option ot repair/upgrade your system or only to install it?  Check your C:\ Drive and see if there is a folder named Windows.OLD.  If so, there may be a way to recover your data, but your programs and your settings are gone and needs to be reinstalled or reconfigured.

    I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have a Windows.OLD folder and I will provide assistance to try to recover your data.  If this folder does not exist, then I am sorry to say that your data too has been deleted and disappeared.

    Good luck!

  • VERY URGENT. Data in accessible after the system recovery which says - data will not be deleted.

    I did a system restore by pressing F11 on my laptop HP XP Home pre-loaded. The step has asked told me that by doing a restore via this procedure, my data will not be changed or lost. I did not a destructive restore.

    Now after recovering my laptop works very well, however I got two sets of data - much of the imp in My Documents data and personal data to another folder. When I went back to work on the laptop, I was able to access the data that I had the pvt. folder, however, any data that is very Important to me and who was there in My Documents has been moved to a new folder named HP and I can't access it. The capacity of the disk hard has not changed, which means that the amount of hard disk space that has been used before is the same, so it means, no data has been removed. I analyzed the defragmenting drive C drive and can see the report, which said, all data is located in the HP folder, but when I try to enter the folder, it says access is denied.

    During recovery, I haven't used any password, which could help to access this folder, I am still unable to view this file, I tried to use an administrator in safe mode too, still the same message.

    I called HP customer, but after talking with them for an hour, I couldn't find a solution. I called microsoft and they say that they support no more than XP? PLEASE HELP ME. I do not understand when I follow on screen instructions from microsoft themselves, why am I facing this problem? Is it a fault of customers to purchase an original product from microsoft, and then when he has a problem microsoft responds that they cannot help them?

    Since I followed all the instructions from microsoft, I'm in trouble, if at any time it would give me a warning that your data won't be accessible or will change, I would have not been made.

    PLEASE HELP ME, I NEED AN URGENT DATA. I HAVE A FEW PRESENTATIONS MAJOR IN THE COMING WEEK, AND I DON'T GET.

    Most probably, you have just to take ownership of these files.  The recovery process has probably created a new user, who does not recognize the system as having access to this folder.  To do this follow these steps:

  • I need to recover files after a system recovery.

    Hello.  I had to perform a recovery system on my Vista operating system.  I lost all the files and programs that I had already installed.  Is there a way I can get those back? I have ProDiscover installed on my computer.  Can I use it?  Thank you.

    For any question about ProDiscover, contact their Support: http://www.techpathways.com/DesktopDefault.aspx?tabindex=6&tabid=11

    Programs should always be reinstalled after a restore to the factory settings.

    If you have an installation clean back to factory settings, you normally wiped your hard drive clean during the process.

    You can try this program:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/Recuva.html

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.
