Lost my files on the C drive after restoring my computer mini Asus laptop (Windows XP)

I lost all my data and files on the C drive (not only the files in the folder my documents, but also other files and folders on drive C, which were not necessarily on the folder My Documents) of my Asus min-laptop (Windows XP) after the restoration of the factory. What should I do to recover my files?

Hello

If you have reinstalled the computer using the default value of the plant. Then its likely that the files were copied to the sense that they are not recoverable. Here's a guide on the way in which the files are stored and how you 'can' be able to recover anything.

  • My files on the hard drive are getting corrupted?

    I use the model of MacBook Air 2013 Yosemite running. I have a Seagate BackPlus 1 TB drive to NTFS. And I use Tuxers NTFS on my Mac to read and write files from NTFS devices. Lately, I'm sloly from knowledge that my files on the hard drive are getting corrupted. When I try to open any folder I blocks until I have remove my hard drive. I lost some files like this. Now, they are completely inaccessilble. The big sone files show even ehen 0 bytes, they are around a GB or something. I start out freak because all my data is in this hard drive. 1 TB of data. Its my life is locked in it.

    Is someone can you please tell me what is happening with my hard drive?

    Thanks in advance...

    Is someone can you please tell me what is happening with my hard drive?

    Probably not. The problem you are experiencing is almost certainly that the drive itself has failed. It could have also been caused by third party software that you use to support a formatted NTFS volume. Isolate the cause to one or the other is probably not an effort worth it, because the files themselves are probably already damaged and unusable. In this case the only alternative to certain to succeed is to restore from a backup.

    As you know the Mac FAT32 and ExFAT supports and can read, but not write - formatted NTFS volume. For this reason, if you ask the Windows compatibility, you must select ExFAT.

    You could try using the third-party data recovery software, even if success is not guaranteed. I can offer no specific product recommendations.

    Yes, the collection clears all of the C drive and you will lose your files. The solution would be to backup regularly to an external HARD drive and after the key one to also restore the files from the external hard drive.

    This has been answered before, if you do a search for "key recovery" it appears among the first results.

  • Can't access the files from the HARD drive of any account on the windows computer 7

    Hello

    When I tried to connect my Western digital external hard drive to a 32-bit desktop P 3 with a Windows XP SP1, then this HARD drive is not detected. Then I tried to copy his WD driver ITS a USB Flash drive, then isntalled all the WD HARD drive was always plugged into my computer. After that, the HARD drive was identified by computer and appear in my computer. As I thought that this folder has been created by the installation of the driver, did not exist on my HARD drive before connected to the desktop computer.

    When I plugged my WD HDDagain to my laptop HP with Windows 7 SP1 64 bit and I tried open this folder, and then the main folder only opened without facing access denied, however, access to all of its subfolders, and the files inside it has been declined.

    In addition, althoguh the username admin Curernet "Mohammad" can open the folder of human "83f04ce083fb03083bb88e50", as shown in the screenshot above, it can not access all of the subfolders, files in the main folder, and to access, I will need to use the scecurity tab. Thus, it would be absolute nonsense, if I want to have access to all of the subfolders, I will need to use the security for each tab.

    How do I gain access to all of the subfolders with use of the Security tab once the time (i.e. as long as all subfolders are inside the main folder, then simply use the main folder security tab?

    As long as the current username "Mohammad" can open the folder of "83f04ce083fb03083bb88e50" man, "Mohammad" is so allowed system to have access to the main folder as shown in the screenshot above, then I think that the username 'Mohammad' will have to reach all subfolders as well. However, when you try to open any subfolder or file, then the current user 'Mohammad' name could not have access to all of the subfolders in the main folder and all subfolders or files opening gave me this error below (screenshots below)

    I tried to remove this main folder, however, each time, I found myself with a loop "you need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file.

    Original title: file access denied

    Groan.  It is so easy to fix, and you should have gotten a lot better support now.  Surprisingly, the worst suggestion came directly from the "Microsoft Support Engineer" Reda Singh, his suggestion potentially compromising the security of your computer while doing absolutely nothing to solve the problem.  Fortunately, it seems like you didn't do something quite right and so the script was not run.

    First of all, let me explain why this difficult access occurs in the first place.  Originally, you had three 'users' granted access to training, SYSTEM, Administrators, and MohammadSYSTEM allows Windows to read your disk, and retrieve things like its label.  It can also allow your antivirus software to access the drive.  Because this OPTION is enabled, Administrators is not accomplish anything, even if you are an administrator.  As long as this OPTION is enabled, this permission only works for programs, that you manually raised to run as administrator.  This leaves access to the drive depend on the last entry, Mohammad.  The problem is the SID behind Mohammad is only good on the computer, it was created, so if you connect this HARD drive on another computer, no access is allowed!  Enter the security on the other computer dialog box, you can either see something "could not read permissions" or you will see the SYSTEM, directorsand a third entry with a long series of numbers.  It's your first computer Mohammad , and it will not work on another computer.

    It is not surprising that you're facing this problem because you are using the drive on multiple computers, which is running XP that is not UAC.  Here's how to unlock a storage drive (in Windows 7) so that it can be normally accessed in any PC without any permissions problem:

    1. Press [Windows] (or click on the circles to start), and then type "user account control".
    2. In the search results, click on "change user account control settings."
    3. Drag the slider to "never notify".
    4. Click [OK] to confirm the changes and restart your computer.
    5. Open Windows Explorer, right-click on the affected drive, and then click Properties -> Security (tab)-> [Advanced]-> owner (tab)-> [change].
    6. You should be on a dialog box that asks what you want to change the owner.  Click on Administrators.
    7. Check Replace owner of subcontainers and objects, and click [OK].  Windows should start processing all the files on the disc.  This may take a few minutes.
    8. When it's done, click [OK] to close the property message and then close out of all other dialog boxes.
    9. In Windows Explorer, click the drive affected again, and then click Properties -> Security (tab)-> [Advanced]-> [edit permissions].
    10. Now in the dialog box Advanced security settings , click the button [delete] repeatedly to remove all permission entries.
    11. Add SYSTEM and grant full control.
      1. Click on [Add...].
      2. Type 'SYSTEM' and press [Enter].
      3. Check full control in the allow column and press [Enter].
    12. Add Administrators and grant full control.
    13. Add users and grant Full control.
    14. In the dialog box Advanced security settings , you should have three entrances of permissions: SYSTEM Administratorsand users, all granted full control.  Check "Replace all permissions of child object with permissions inheritable from this object" and click [OK].
    15. Click [Yes] to confirm the replacement of permissions.  Again, Windows start to process all files on the disk, which may take a few minutes.
    16. When he finishes, close to all the dialog boxes and check that all records are now accessible.  You may have to refresh (or close and reopen) explore to see the changes.
    17. Assuming that it worked, we will re-enable UAC to reduce the vulnerability of temporary security, that we created earlier.  Press [Windows] and then type 'user account control '.
    18. In the search results, click on "change user account control settings."
    19. Drag the slider to the position below the top (position #2, by default).
    20. Click [OK] and restart your computer.  Now, the files remain accessible.

    This should straighten the permissions of your disk storage so that you can use it again.  You may need to empty the trash on this drive after changing permissions.

    Don't do this procedure on your C:\ drive, it will seriously reduce the security of your Windows installation.  This is for the readers of storage only.  If you need access to a specific file that you created to C:\, you can safely do the steps above on this issue, but never on the C:\ drive itself.  Please note that when you perform this procedure on a folder instead of a hard drive, you will need to replace this step #10:

    10. now in the dialog box Advanced security settings , uncheck the box "Include permissions can be inherited from the parent to this object" and click [delete] to confirm.  If some permission entries remain, click [Remove] until they are all gone.

    The concept is the same in Windows Vista, even if the exact steps differ from the foregoing at least Windows 8.  In Windows 8, you must also disable UAC with a registry tweak because, unlike Windows 7, UAC remains on even when the value of "Never notify", giving rise to all sorts of problems in Explorer tries to work with file permissions.

    Oh and to answer one other question I saw you ask from the beginning: this folder of the .net Framework was created by .net Framework Installer.  He breaks all the rules and frustrating unpacks his junk everywhere where it feels like.  I got it decompress on a front SD card, making the installation would take forever.  After installing the .net Framework, you probably disconnected the drive before restarting your computer, so these files let me.  Or the installation crashed and started you again.  Meanwhile, installs the failure left its Temp files behind.  It was supposed to remove the folder when the installation is complete.  You can remove safely as the folder manually.

    Original title: need for disk space

    Here are the official specifications of Toshiba for your PC...

    http://support.Toshiba.com/support/staticContentDetail?ContentId=638405&isFromTOCLink=false

    All interface PATA (IDE) connectors are a standard 40 pin.

    I know that there is no restriction on the mixture of ATA drives with different speed capabilities and no restrictions on what cable you use, whether 40 wire or 80 strand (but still 40 pins).

    Faster drives will only work at the speed of the slowest car on any cable and 80 strand cables are needed to make ATA66 or higher drives run at their native speed.

    In addition, no player can work faster than the motherboard chipset permits, in your case ATA66.

    My provider of trade has still some disks 3.5 '' PATA in stock, but these are becoming harder and harder to find. Indeed, it is possible that production has ceased and that suppliers are just exhausted stocks.

    I can certainly say that, when repairs this technology were more frequent, I never had problems with discs theoretically faster on the same cable as slower drives, nor by using faster on 40 cable strands discs. In fact, of many penny pinching manufacturers (some of them major) regularly used for the optical drive and hard drive on the same cable as the motherboard has two connectors, resulting in a decrease in performance on the disk hard (although most of the people would not have noticed the difference). Sometimes, the cable would be 40 strand (understandable if you are penny pinching) and sometimes the cable would be 80 strand (laughable if you are penny pinching because they are [were] more expensive).

    Pass your question about vacant below the sound card. Unless your text confused me, this space is for expansion cards no disk drives. Space that you reference is probably to the back of the PC. Hard drives are normally located toward the front of the dedicated PC "berries". Unfortunately, I could find no photo on the Toshiba site, and still less those internal.

  • System Restore error: "the changes to the G: drive after this point cannot be reversed, because the drive has been either excluded from monitoring system restore or has been disabled or deleted.»

    I had some problems with my computer recently I knew could be solved with the system restore.  Then I went into system restore and went to a restore point that was a few weeks back.  After I clicked on it and pressing the ok button, the following message appeared: "the changes made to the G: drive after this point cannot be reversed, because the drive has been either excluded from monitoring system restore or has been disabled or deleted.»  I let it continue and do the restore.  My computer has rebooted and came up with an error in system restore that says restore failed.  It's the same thing with other restore points.  I don't know why I get this error because I not made any changes to this hard drive except for copy of a document word on him.  I thought that the System Restore monitors removable disks.  Anyone know what is happening here and how I can get the restoration of the system to operate without the mistakes to come?

    I have Norton.  Disable the Tamper Protection works.  I also noticed that since the G: drive was a portable hard drive, System Restore wanted to exercise oversight.  He wants to monitor all hard drives.  Turn on external and portable hard disks prevents tracking system restore changes to the readers.  I don't think anyone would have the system restore review external drives anyway.  It is not necessary.

  • Deleting files from the Flash drive

    I have a Sandisk Cruzer Edge 16 GB Flash Drive.  I use it with two computers, an iMac and a Macbook Air, both using OS X 10.8.2.  Recently, I loaded about 10 GB of files on it.  I have now deleted these files.  However, Finder always shows the Flash drive as carrying 10.8 GB of files and having only 5,2 GB of available.  When I try to record a 10 GB file on the Flash drive, I get a message saying that there is not enough available space.

    How can I delete uploaded files from the Flash drive so that I can reuse the whole 16 GB?

    I don't use a Mac, so I'm going off the coast of the memory of what I read here before, but I think you need to empty your trash, while the disc is still connected to your Mac.
