Help recover a lost word file

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/827099

I tried on the advice of this page, but I have windows vista and when I click start there is only a search box,

  1. Click Start, and then click Search.
  2. In the lower left corner of the Windows Desktop Search pane, click click here to use the Search Assistant, if this option is listed.
  3. In the Search Companion pane, click all files and folders.
  4. In the all or part of the file name box, type the name of the document that you want to find.
  5. In the box look in , click Workstation, and then click Search.
There is no place for me to "click on" search & then ""click here to use the Search Wizard " "
Help, please!

You couldn't find searching because it has been removed from the computer when Vista SP1 (Service Pack 1) has been installed.
You have 2 choices for search return:

1. you can get him back on the right side of the Start Menu, BUT you will have to give up the option help and Support or Run. You need to decide who to give it up
Here is the tutorial: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/145787-search-start-menu-button-restore-after-sp1.html

2 create a shortcut from desktop search instead. In this way, you don't have to give up anything either.
Here is the tutorial: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/126499-search-desktop-shortcut.html
Take One - DOWNLOAD Option. Easier.

Once you have your option of looking back, you can follow the instructions from Ms.

    If the above program does not recover your files, you can also use TestDisk. He recovered the files several times for me after the failure of other programs. He has recently recovered files on a SD card which had been erased using Gutmans 35 pass overwrite. Hard to believe but he did.

    Hello, firefox does not save your downloaded files in a sqlite database, but directly in the download on your disk directory. what you might be able to extract your downloads (ctrl + j) history is a url to a file for the re - download.
    You can also try running a program like "recuva" to restore material deleted on your drive, but it is out of the scope of support for mozilla products...

    Duplicate of:
  • Help recovering files flat.vmdk supplied thickness necessary!

    Hi all

    First of all, some background on my current configuration (and I'll try to keep it short and sweet)...

    I have 3 1 than to hard disks in a 5.x ESXi host I use in a RAID5 array.  The RAID is actually implemented and managed by a guest Windows Server 2008R2 VM on the host.  When I created data warehouses to build the table, I've formatted each of hard drives and added inside the vSphere Client as VMFS data stores.  When I added the readers to the configuration of the VM of comments, I put them to be supplied thick lazy-reset and all 3 have the same size (930.2899996 GB).  Each disc has an and a single VMDK and this VMDK takes up most of the usable usable VMFS partition sectors.  Inside of the guest, the virtual disks were formatted using Windows Disk Manager like dynamic GPT disks without starting and then adjust upward in a RAID5 array.

    What has happened...

    A week or if there is during a backup/cleaning of the virtual machine, I accidentally deleted a 2nd guest VM which has also consulted with data warehouses (I was testing Windows Server 2012R2, impressed) without separate configuration of the 2nd VM first, data warehouses and eventually remove the VMDK files from the disk.  I am recovering files flat.vmdk at least 2 of these discs.  As this happened, I spent many hours of research online about VMDK recovery and disk running scans trying to find the missing VMDK (again unsuccessfully). Nothing has been written to one of these discs, and the VMFS partition is still in-tact.

    I know...

    Geometry of the disk, the file names, logical sector size and number of sectors files missing VMDK (recovered in the log file of the last successful start-up of the VM)

    Using the above information, I have a model created for a descriptor ready replacement VMDK file as soon as I can retrieve images flat.vmdk

    What I've tried so far...

    ESXi Shell & vmfs-fuse-> Navigation data storages show volumes are empty.  VMFS-fuse mounts the volume, but no VMDK file cannot be found.

    UFS Explorer-> same basic idea.  VMFS partitions are found easily and show good healthcare, but I can't find the files there, either.

    Hexagonal view using of UFS Explorer, I autorévisés several areas that I know are within the area of data and verified the parity RAID5 withdraws (to be confirmed), it seems that the data is always there and in-tact.

    DiskInternals VMFS Recovery-> attempt to analyze the disk, after 36 hours of scanning on a single disc had not yet reached 10%.

    What I would like to...

    Find the starting location for the file flat.vmdk for each disc and do an image binary dump of this position to the end of the VMDK file (sector of end computed by the starting location + number of sectors for the VMDK's newspaper).  Since all 3 discs are identical in the sense of VMWare, this place of departure should be the same for all 3 disks.  I have an external HD to 3 TB in waiting for the dump once I know not where to start.

    Worth I feel is actually locate the start position in hexadecimal view (I do not know what hexadecimal values, I need to look for).  Sanbarrow (continuum) of the site (VMDK-basics), he said he's looking for the mbr as header of the file, but I've not found in my records.

    Last note 1: this isn't a company or business system.  This is my personal home server and I have legitimate licenses for all the OS running on the host computer.

    Grade 2: Yes, I * have a backup, but it is around the age of 2 months and lack about 300 GB of files that have been added since the last backup.  Can I recover a good part of the missing data (about 60 GB) back to the source and copying/download files, but there are still about 240 GB that I can't copy (source no longer exists).  My fault for not having more recent backups, but worse is still not a TOTAL loss (about 85 percent recovered from backup & original sources).  All disks in the guest system VMDK is stored on a separate DSS and have experienced good backups of the primary system on a separate disk drives).

    Any assistance with this would be much appreciated!

    Thank you

    Ok...

    So, after several weeks and countless hours my best, I finally decided to give up and call it closes unexpectedly.  Finally, I reformatted the hard drive and rebuilt the RAID from scratch - it is just the initial synchronization now and I will fully bring my last backup to the table at this stage ends.  The most important things I have known and confirmed backups of already, but I'll never recover the archival footage that I had done previous laptops, but at least it's not a TOTAL loss.  I've not spent by them in a long time, so I doubt that something very important, but there are still some bugs the stew out of me.

    What bothers me more, however, is the lack of response at all here.  I read on previous posts on the subject, describes the situation in detail as well as what I need help with, and after 3 weeks and 60 views... nothing.  I thought that VMware would have an active, reactive and useful community much more than that and I must say that I am very disappointed.  I hope that all those who might find themselves in this situation is able to get the help they need.

    I hope everyone has a great 2014!

  • Word file missing-always present in recent documents

    Hello

    I use Word for Mac 2011 and OS X 10.10.5.

    I was looking to open a word file this morning and it was gone.

    Here's what I've tried:

    1 automatic of the files-nothing there

    2. temporary files nothing there

    3. the record shows recent items in word - but is not where he is supposed to be

    4. I saved the computer 7 days ago, (I know I had to do it everyday but I have not :/) - could find a first version of the Time Machine backup, but have invested days in in the meantime - so all the work went

    5. I emptied trash when I supported the computer 7 days ago, if I accidentally deleted in the meantime, it should be in the trash

    All the tips you have please help - it doesn't feel that it's for me

    Thank you

    recent documents does not take into account the file exist.

    If you select in the list it gives you an error WHERE it is trying to find?

    If you emptied the trash and that's where it went but there are 3rd party tools for trying to UN-erase files, but more you empty your trash and use the computer normally less you will be able to recover anything.

    is it possible that the file is on a drive flash, not connected external hard drive or network volume or cloud?

    After a hard drive crash and recover most of my files on an external hard drive which eventually became my only internal, but because I live on an island in South America and there's hardly anyone on the island I live who can help other that a friend, I took a trip to Miami to visit the genius bar and they did a new install of Capitan which I don't really like by the way.  In any case, I though I had lost all my iPhoto library, but I managed to find my photos. Only now I have two libraries... the iPhoto with images from my Photos on Capitan and 8 years.  Is it possible to consolidate them in a library?  And can I still use RAW to be able to edit photos? aIso, y at - it a tutorial for the Photos?

    In the future more facts and less editorial help here

    SO now, we know all about how you feel but nothing on your system or your problem

    What version of El Captain do you have (10.11.3 is the current version with Photos 1.3)

    You cannot merge libraries without third party software - Photos of power can merge pictures libraries

    You can migrate iPhoto libraries to libraries of Photos by dragging Photos icon in the Dock

    When you first launched the Photos it has migrated the last used for Photos iPhoto library

    I hope this will help, but to get specific answers, you need to provide real information and not feelings
