Want: restoring files

• Restore files, backup created using Vista, you try to restore using XP

  I've known a failuren hard drive on my laptop running Vista Ultimate.  I have a backup on an external hard drive.

  I'm still hoping that I can recover data from faulty hard disk, but it doesn't look promising.

  In the meantime, I'm trying to restore the backup files using my previous laptop, which is running XP.  When I try to select the files to restore by using the backup/restore application, it can't find all the appropriate files.  He seems to want a file with an extension "BKF", but I can't find the external hard disk.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you in advance.

  Problem solved, thanks to those who put suggestions on the forums.

• Want the file names to work as captions

  Hello, I am about to create a DVD of photos and music from an audio CD.  I've never used Windows Media Center before, but plan to use for this project.  Before we go too far, I would like to know how to have my file names to display on each photo - as a legend.  And I don't want the file extension that you want to display.  Can someone tell me how to save the pictures correctly for this purpose?  Thank you, Susan

  FastStone Image Viewer freeware can add
  file names in the face of your photos in a batch.

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  FastStone Image Viewer
  http://www.FastStone.org/FSViewerDetail.htm
  (Windows XP / Vista / 7) (on the screen to download...
  try... exe (site 2) for easier downloading)

  I suggest that you create a new folder and add
  copies of your photos for experimental purposes.
  If you are unhappy with the result your originals
  will be intact.

  After FastStone is downloaded and installed...
  Open the program and go...

  Tools / open the Batch Conversion / tab Batch convert...

  Check the box... Use of advanced options...

  Advanced Options button / tab text.
  Check the box... Add text...

  (You will need to experiment with the position and the police
  size and color to get the desired result.)
  (the text size will need to be adjusted according to the)
  the size of the photos)

  Open the window drop... "Insert a Variable."
  choose... The file name / no Extension...
  (in the white field you should see ($C1)
  Left click... Ok

  On the Batch tab convert... in the left field...
  Find and select the photos you want to
  Add.

  Left, click on the Add button to move the files to
  the right field.

  Choose an output Format...

  Choose an output folder...

  Click on the button convert...

  It's much easier to do than to explain then
  give it a try before say you "Good Grief... it's too
  a lot of work.

  BTW... when your photos are ready... try to import
  in creation of Windows DVD to create your video
  slide show.

• Put the files in the trash, empty the trash, and then doing some other stuff, and then when I couldn't find the files again, I reinstalled windows vista... now I need/want these files

  I sent files to the trash, and then I emptied the trash, and then realized that I only need/want these files, so I went to look for them, then screwed up everything while doing so somehow a shortcut on my desktop, then I put in the disc to reboot/reinstall the entire system windows vista... can we recover these items , or they are gone forever?

  I don't know what kind to reinstall you did.  If it was a repair/upgrade, you may be in better shape (fact he preserve your data and programs after the re - install - then you have made the right kind of re - install).

  If you did a reinstall to repair/upgrade and if you have Vista Business, Vista Ultimate or Vista Enterprise, you can be lucky.  They have so-called saves shadow copies, which are deleted or modified files that can be recovered in case changes/deletions made by mistake.  http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/Windows-Vista/features/shadow-copy.aspx more information about how to use this feature to: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=145.

  If you have Vista Basic or Premium of Vista, shadow copies is not available; However, there is an alternative that is free and the shadow copies feature called Shadow Explorer. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/recover-files-with-shadow-copies-on-any-version-of-windows-vista/.  Although it will not help you this time, it could very well save you in case this happens again.

  If this does not work, here are a few free recovery programs that might help (if you did a lot for the system, because the files have been deleted, then chances are that less as they might otherwise be - see notes below):

  http://www.SnapFiles.com/freeware/system/fwdatarecovery.html (first try Recuva)

  http://www.SoftPerfect.com/products/FileRecovery/

  http://techpaul.WordPress.com/2008/06/23/how-to-recover-your-lost-files/

  The files are not really deleted until they are crushed (although they are no longer available through conventional methods).  If you decide to try these recovery programs, you should stop using your drive hard immediately in order not to replace the data that you are trying to recover.  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.  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).  The fact that you did a re - install is not good for what is successful, - but it's worth a try.

  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.

  Good luck and I hope this helps!

• Restoring files of Simplesave

  I'm trying to restore files after a system on my Windows 7, HP Simplesave system recovery (I think 500).   It is said in the online manual, double-click the hp simplesave icon in the system tray.   The Simplesave unit is connected with the screening of blue light but I do not see the icon in the systray.

  Hello ghoppa6,

  The SimpleSave reader should be strong when you connect the USB cable to the computer. If this isn't the case, then AutoPlay can be disabled in Win - 7 and perhaps you want to re-inable it. http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Change-AutoPlay-settings#1TC=Windows-7

  Meanwhile, I open the external drive and find the SimpleSave folder and inside should be a folder called HPSimpleSave. Double-click it to start the program, then you can set up the restore of your files.

  Let me know if you have any other questions.

• Restore files lost on windows 8

  How to restore files lost on windows 8

  Hi Ed,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing and will certainly help you in the right direction to solve the problem. However, I would be grateful if you could answer a few questions to refine the question in order to provide you with better assistance.

  1. You have deleted the files you want to recover?
  2. Did you recently upgraded your system to Windows 8?
  3. What exactly happened which made lose files?

  If you have lost files, there are some steps that can help you recover them. Historical files regularly backup versions of your files in Documents, music, photos, videos and office files and OneDrive files available offline on your PC. Over time, you will have a complete history of your files. If the originals are lost, damaged or deleted, you can restore them. See the following article for assistance.

  Restore files or folders by using the history file

  If, however, you reset, refresh, or reinstall Windows, your personal files are temporarily stored in the Windows.old folder for 28 days (unless you have formatted your hard disk before install). If you decide to part or all of these files, you can usually recover from this folder. So, I suggest to refer to the following article and check if it helps.

  Retrieve files from the Windows.old folder

  Hope this information is useful. Let us know if you need more help, we will be happy to help you.

• Restore file that has been deleted in Winrar

  original title: restoring files

  Hi, I just deleted a file using SHIFT + DELETE, how can I recover.

  It's a winrar file,
  I use microsoft vista,

  Thank you

  To avoid this scenario in the future, suggest that you use SHIFT-DELETE.
  Instead, just right click a file > click on delete. This way you'll always have a chance to recover it from trash also long as you have not emptied the trash.
