@mikeymikec While I continue to research this topic before resorting to professionals, would you guys say disabling TRIM and not using any SSD space to mitigate any further damages? After disabling TRIM, can I use Chrome or try another search for those files without potentially compromising the...

I don't have the laptop with me at the moment as I'm not home. I don't recall having anything in the documents/pictures folder. I only had folders ranging from 1 to 19 or so on the desktop. I think I made a mistake installing Recuva onto the C drive as it could have overwritten some data. Doh...

Yeah, all my files are missing from the desktop. Like I said, I had them in folders ranging from 1-19 or something like that. The only thing left after the botched backup are the computer, recycle bin, Garmin Express, and Google Chrome shortcuts. Assuming what you said is true, why would I...

I just turned on my laptop and I was quite surprised to see that all of the folders and files on my desktop disappeared. Initially, I saw them in the file explorer, and my C drive had about 200GB of free space. As I was downloading updates on Windows 11, busy on the phone and whatnot, now more...

I have to admit, I'm one of those guys that have a habit of opening tabs and never close them. On my Nexus 5, I have about 512 tabs opened. For reasons that I don't understand, I don't see all 512 tabs opened on Chrome for Windows. I only see like maybe 20 tabs opened. Is there a reason why this...

It doesn't seem like portable hotspots are popular in North America. I'm looking for a hotspot that can be used on the world's major LTE networks. It should have good battery life. Anyone here know of one that will fit my needs? Thanks!

I'm getting kind of stick and tired of the paywalls so I'm now looking to get a subscription to each of these newspapers. Anyone here read these papers? I know it's going to be a bit expensive to get a subscription to each of these papers, but I'm a huge fan and I do consider myself to be a news...

https://www.netatmo.com/product/security/welcome I'm looking to buy an indoor camera that doesn't rely on cloud storage. The Netatmo seems to fit my needs as it can record to either micro-SD, Dropbox, and FTP server. I'm more interested in the FTP server. How does that work? Can I set up one of...

I have a old Haswell processor lying around and I'm looking to build a PC with that processor. It's a Core i5 processor, but it can't be overclocked so I don't see a need to spend the money and get a Z97 base motherboard. Other than overclocking, what are the advantages of Z97 over the B85...

Unfortunately Google Apps is now a paid service, but I am still using the free edition of Google Apps with my own domain name. Several weeks ago, I noticed that my emails have disappeared and I don't understand why that is the case. I can't seem to find a number that I can call to get technical...

Isn't that more of a software problem? Is the S808 actually faster than the S800?

So I've had this visa card since my days in college. I have never bothered to look into the details of the rewards program since I thought that the program wasn't really worth it since it'll likely take tons of points to redeem anything of value to me. Just earlier today, I noticed some points...

How does the S808 in the 5X compare to the S800 in the 5? In terms of performance, is the 5X faster than the 5?

I'm surprised that they're not doing that for their flagship mATX mobo!

I just bought a rMBP. I know iPhoto have already been discontinued. Is there any chance of getting a copy of the software? I think Apple even released an update to make it compatible with El Capitan.
