Lost file

I opened an attachment in Excel and worked with him for several weeks.  I forgot that I had not saved on my laptop and just registered and closed it.  Based on my experience at work, it is saved in a temporary folder that is renamed with a few numbers but I don't know where such a folder resides on a HP.  Any help?  Thank you!

I tried to search excel files, but it was not among them.  At the office, we have Lotus Notes for email.  If you open an attachment, change it and press on save, goes into a folder saved under a name that is a number and a type of obscure file, not .xls.   I send from Comcast.  Y at - it a file type associated with these attachments?

Email from Comcast's webmail. It's never on your PC, except as a temp file when you are viewing. That is why Outlook or Thunderbird are widely used, since emails are actually saved on the hard drive of your PC.

If you have never saved the Excel file on your hard drive then you will not be able to recover. Sorry to bear bad news.

  • Lost files after that the user profile service has no problem

    In order to correct a problem with the user profile Service failed, I followed the instructions at support.microsoft.com/kb/947215 to remove the corrupted profile and create a new.  Profile corrupt (probably) was my usual login and my login of admin privileges (I didn't know there was no reason to separate them).  I created the new profile of admin privilege and connected successfully with that.  However, my original admin profile is not deleted and I can now log on that as well.  So now I have two profiles admin and a guest profile.  The problem is that I can't access my data files using these profiles.  This includes my documents Word and Adobe and other applications in which I entered the data.  The applications are there, but they appear as having no data in them.  My screen came back on the screen by default, and almost all of my desktop shortcuts have been removed.

    How can I access my data?

    I have a restore point on January 22.  I deleted the corrupted profile on 30 January.

    You can try this:

    1. Download, install and run the Restore of System Explorer.
    2. Select a date that precedes the January 30.

    This will give you a virtual drive letter that shows the C: drive as it was to the selected date. Using Windows Explorer, you should now be able to copy files and missing files to the place where normally keep you them.

    This could be a good time to review your backup strategy. The rule is: a file that is not saved is a lost file. It's only a matter of time. Regular (e.g. weekly) backups on an external (usually a hard drive in a USB enclosure) are common.

  • Tired of the throes of finding lost files of office

    Is it possible to change the default with MS programs to save the downloaded files office as temporary files?  I know that you can use "Save as", after that you open to save a permanent record, but I have a tendency to forget and am tired of the agony of searching for lost files.  Thank you...

    No doubt, you are referring to attachments in mail?

    If that's that case mail attachments are allways saved in a temporary location, unless you use "save under", which cannot be changed.

    Its always been the case that if you modify an attachment and save, this backup may be lost.

    And unless you perminently delete mail all mail & commitment will be kept in your e-mail folders or your archive.

    And if you have the habit of perminentaly deletion of mail there are third-party add-ins that can remove all attachments and who save to a location of Documents.

  • After running PC Refresh on Windows 8 lost files

    * Original title: critical lost files after update PC on Windows 8 - not in the Windows.old folder, so what is the best way to get back them?

    Initially, I had a problem whenever my phone wanted to do an update. It takes 30 minutes for the update and then I would get an error saying updates could not be performed changes recovery. I called the helpline PC came with my computer. After a few here to get the update to work, they told me that they will have to perform a PC Refresh. I was told that I would not lose any of my personal files, photos, docs, etc... I did it. At first, it seemed everything was ok except when I went to access some files that belong to a photo software I use.

    I knew that my software 'Panstoria' would have been lost, but I wasn't expecting the files I have access through it to lose. When I reloaded Panstoria I couldn't find the files I acceding known for 'My leap' software, which file name is manifest.vaultx. This software allows me to label photos, file in categories, journal etc. Again, I didn't know all this has been a problem because the software States very clearly that all of your photos and other are not saved in the software but rather your documents... then I thought about updating PC would be ok... turns out NOT. I can't find "repository"My"in the documents. I have even returned to the folder Windows.old and they cannot find.

    My questions are these: what is the best way to try to recover the files? If I do a system restore which will bring back all the documents as they were before the update? A system restore would return all users that may have been changed as well?  I'm just sick to my stomach that I can't find the file because it is the last 20 years of pictures and videos of my family and if I can't get these back I lost all my memories :-(

    Hello

     
    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
     

    According to the description of the problem, I understand that, after the system update, you've lost critical files.

    I imagine how it could be frustrating when losing essential data from the computer.

     
    To better understand this issue, I would like to know the following information:
     
    1. What is the brand and model of the computer?
    2 do you have him comes preinstalled with Windows 8 computer or you have upgraded the Windows 8 of the older operating system such as Windows 7?
    3. you receive an error message when you try to access these files from the Panstoria software?
    4. where these files saved locally on the computer, as well as my safe?
    5 did you cooling system or the system restore?
     

    First of all, I would like to inform you that if you this execution of a cooling system, would not create a Windows.old folder.

    The Windows.Old folder is generated when you perform a customized Windows installation. The files that were used in the earlier version of Windows are stored in the Windows.Old folder.

     
    Perform the refresh of the system: Applications that you have installed Web sites and DVD is deleted. The applications provided with your PC and applications that you have installed in the Windows store will be resettled. Windows puts a list of apps removed on your desktop after you refresh your PC.
    Follow the article below to know what are the powerful effects of cooling system.
     
    Refer to: refresh your PC without your files
    You can refresh your PC without delete all of your personal files or change your settings.
     
    I suggest you look for missing files on your computer, by referring to the article below.

    Search for files in file Explorer
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/search-file-Explorer
    Note: You can search for files in file Explorer using the search box next to the address bar in top right. (Note that my computer has been renamed to this PC in the file Explorer in Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1).

    If you are unable to recover the missing files, I suggest you check once in the trash.

    If you are able to find the files in the trash, I suggest you to restore files from the Recycle Bin.
    My safe also stores the image files.
    Refer to WHAT PEOPLE ON MY safe STORE:
     
    If you are not able to find the files that you have lost the computer I suggest you to contact my Vault to recover lost files.
    My contact Vault
     
    Hope this information helps, please respond with the requested information and the status of the issue.

  • Is there a collective way to have 5 Lightroom to find lost files?

    Although I tried to move the folders and files only with Lightroom, I see that many of my images in the thumbnails shown in the library cannot open 5 Lightroom cannot find the files.  I guess that I moved the files between readers accidentally without knowledge of Lightroom.  I also find that I can control click and try to find individual files.  Is it possible to make this process of discovery for the readers or the entire folders?  Can I import files from a disk (which is the original source of the lost files) mass and run through the import on Lightroom function and return them directly in the file from which they were imported?  This create a new thumbnail in the library but duplicate files in the affected folder, and the drive?

    Jim, thank you very much for your answer.  I used the approach that you have listed, but there are still a number of lost images.  Maybe I didn't do the below files I try.

  • Lost files (not used)

    I had Lightroom for a few months now and have some 17 000 images loaded by it from an external hard drive and have done extensive work on at least 2,000 of these images.

    Today I turn on the Lightroom (latest version) and the section of the folder on the left side of the window displays a TOTAL of 300 images. Here are the latest pictures that I downloaded. There is not the folders and subfolders that are displayed with the? shown... just the 2 files with these images in them.

    My files are still on my hard drive but do not appear in Lightroom. All the tutorials and FAQ on this (lost files) always refers to the? or in folders in Lightroom.  My many folders and subfolders do not yet show upward. I hope this can be resolved without charge me a few 17 000 images in Lightroom. and what about all the changes in Lightroom, I've done for them?

    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated

    Thank you

    Ed

    Ed,

    From your post, it seems that you did not understand that requested the Paige. It wasn't about records.

    Lightroom Catalog is one file like the others, and it is possible that you have created a second, in which you have imported these 300 images.

    Try this menu command and see if it lists a second catalog:

    If this is the case, click on it and see if your previous images are there.

    My profile Windows 10 has been altered, so I created a new and copied all my files, including itunes to the new. Now... when I go to play a song, one get a message saying that the original file cannot be found... any ideas. Thank you

    The problem of 'missing file' with exclamation points occurs if the file is no longer where iTunes is expected to find. Causes possible is that you or a third-party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, one of its parents, or the reader, records it feeds has been a change in the letter of the drive or you have moved a non-portable library to a different path (see make a split cell library for more details). It is also possible that iTunes has changed from waiting for the files in the presentation of pre-iTunes 9 post-iTunes 9 layout, or vice versa, and so looking for a bit in the wrong place.

    Select a track with an exclamation point, use Ctrl-I to get information, then click on no when asked to try to locate the runway. Look under the file tab for the location that iTunes thinks that the file should be. Now look around your hard drive. I hope you can locate the track in question. If a part of your library has just been moved, renamed a folder or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse actions. If the difference between the two railroads is an additional music folder in a path, then it is a problem of layout. I can explain more if this is the case. If everything is where it is supposed to be trying to fix the security permissions for iTunes for Windows.

    In some cases, iTunes may be able to repair itself if you go through the same steps with Get Info, or during playback of a track, but this time, click on search and browse the lost track. Then, it can offer try to automatically correct the other broken links. Although he said something like 'use the same location' I think he expects to find titles in the same provision, artist / album, they were previously, with a systematic change to the path.

    If another application like Windows Media Player has moved/renamed files, or the library was moved from OS X to Windows, then chances are that subtle differences in naming strategies it will be difficult to restore the media to the precise path that iTunes is pregnant. In this case, as long as the missing files somewhere, you should be able to use my FindTracks script for reconnecting to iTunes. See this post for an explanation of how it works. It may need some adjustments if your media is in a non-standard layout.

    If you want me to try to provide specific advice, please post back the following details:

    1. The location of the media under Edition folder > Preferences > advanced
    2. The location of a sample of missing follow indicated under Get Info > file > location that begins file://localhost/
    3. The real path to the file which you gave 2 details

  • Remove the 'fake' lost files transfer

    If I try to transfer this file to a device (e.h. iPod) my iTunes has lost the link to the originally imported files, iTunes don't tell me that the files are not actually present, and it seems that the transfer happens. The drop works, the icon has fallen flashing well, and then nothing happens. Is there a checkbox somewhere saying "iTunes must check whether the files are actually there, or give an error that the transfer may not happen as expected?

    Use Ctrl + B to activate so hidden menu, and then edit > Preferences > advanced > reset warnings. This may begin to show a warning indicating that you have previously deleted. iTunes expects that all the elements that have been added to remain in the library. When he can't do what he is asked he often fails silently, except of course when you want, as in your thread: Auto check all applications during the import.
