Where are my files after restoring?

I have a HP Pavilion Elite running Vista. After a reboot, it got stuck in an infinite loop trying to install an update, this message "Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3...» 0% complete"then close. After trying I finally had to do a full recovery that finally rebooted the computer, but all my data appear to be locked in the Factory Image Restore points of driving in a marked RECOVERY partition. How can I retrieve my files?

  • Don't recharge files after restoring Vista 32 bit

    I had vista 64 bit OS and got disorders pilot so I restored it to 32 bits after a backup to an external hard drive, now I can't restore the files as the restoration Center shows no backup is available. Please help I need these files soon.

    Original title; Novice needs help.

    Hi Bluesman123,

    Please take a look at the following information through MRMic of a previous post:

    I got exactly the same problem on Vista 32 bit. The second time I tried to restore from my external hard drive, I got the error "data too small area."

    After you have reinstalled Vista, I wanted to make a backup. To avoid a conflict between the backup of previous installation and the new facility, I renamed the backup folder (for example, MICPC to MICPC-OLD). Later, I got the error trying to restore my old backup. On a whim, I renamed the old folder its original name (OLD of MICPC to MICPC) and that fixed it (or at least restore now works).

    It turns out that I never needed to rename the folder in the first place because when I reinstalled Vista, I added in some way a dash in my name of the computer (MIC - PC) makes it different from the old (MICPC) one anyway.

    I hope this helps!

  • Re Mail Yosemite: where are the files of signatures and rules are?

    I had to reinstall Yosemite from scratch. I want to import Signatures and rules - without accounts - back-up of the previous installation. What are the names of the files in question and where are they located?

    You need locate the folder ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Signatures for your signatures and ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/SyncedRules.plist for your rules.

    Drag and drop in the same location on your new installation.

    I hope this helps.

  • where are the files of exercise tutorial?

    Where are the exercise files mentioned in the photoshop tutorials?

    Most of the video tutorials on AdobeTV won't exercise files to go with the video. If they do, they will be listed under "Show more details" in the section about this episode.

    There are a few resources that you can use if you want to follow tutorials with exercise files to go with the steps.

    Lynda.com is a great resource for learning Photoshop. To have full access to learning tools you must buy a subscription, but many of their lessons have exercise files cover.

    You can also watch in Level Up for Photoshop. It is a plugin that you download and open in Photoshop which walks you through the step-by-step tutorials in the program. All Level Up exercise files are included when you download the plugin.

    I hope this helps! Good luck

  • To computer new catalog. Where are the files?

    In order to move to a new company, I installed LR on the new computer and find the catalog on the old computer. I copied the complete catalog file and copied to the new computer and set up this catalog as catalog for the new LR. I can see the file structure but next to each folder, there is a question mark and when I right click, there is an option to 'find the missing folder '. So what did I fact? Have I just moved previews without the real files? If Yes, where the actual files would be? Any help is very appreciated.

    Thank you

    Looks like you did not move the photo files. Here again on the old computer, anywhere where you have stored the (or anywhere where you headed Lightroom to store). The name of the actual file can be seen in the metadata Panel of the Lightroom library Module, it corresponds to the location on the old computer. To move photos to new computer, keep the hierarchy of unchanged files, move everything to the new computer and put the pictures in the same place exactly as on the old computer (if it were to d:\my pictures on the old computer, put them in d:\my pictures on the new computer). If you can not put the photos in the exact same on the new computer, keep the same hierarchy and re - link in Lightroom via these instructions: Adobe Lightroom - find folders and files moved or missing

  • Manage Sites window is blank after upgrade. How can I tell Dreamweaver where are the files to my site?

    Hello

    Running Dreamweaver on CC. I updated yesterday and now when I go to 'Manage the Sites' the window is empty. In the local files on the right side window, it shows all my folders starting with "Computer" as the root. I really want to avoid having to add to each site (with the news server etc.). I can't see an .ste file in one of the site folders. Nothing appears in the preferences that will allow me to set the path to the folder that contains all the files of my site. Can anyone help?

  • can not find restored files after restoring backup hard drive

    I had a problem with my computer so I reset my PC back to factory setting. Before doing anything, I backed up all my documents/pictures in an external hard drive.

    After successfully resetting my PC to factory setting, I ran restore backup files... I took me 4 hours to restore. Restore files has been a success.

    When I restart my PC, I couldn't find anything my back upwards. I don't know that there have been restored as I have only 50 G to 200G left of my C drive.

  • Where are the files published in the recent tab recorded exactly?

    So, here is the situation I faced, if I open an eBook (let's call it E_Original), highlight the text and add some notes, these changes are not saved in the original pdf file. Edited pdf file appears in the recent tab with the small icon of cloud under the name of file (this file has the name E_Original but seems it is not the original file, but some temporary files located elsewhere).

    So my file is secure on cloud to adobe but again I want to access locally so that I can record on dropbox on my tablet, possible etc on my computer. So, where exactly published in MRU files are found in android?

    My OS: Android 5.1

    Thank you

    Hello

    If you want to save the file on dropbox or car, you can do so using this option (on the lower bar) to share. If you want these clouds files locally, you can generate a public link using the "share the public link" option in the dialog share. After you build the link, you can download this file and you can save it locally.
