[xpaf077]

Hi All And Hppy belated New Year!
My problem is taht I accidently deleted a folder istead of remaning it and when i open the recycle bin, it shows no lifles at all an no option to restore. But if i right click on the icom from the desktop and click empty, it ask if i want to delete 29 files. I am running WinMe, have been for 2 months without any problems at all.
Help from all you gurus in these forums would be greatly appreciated,
because these files are important for my work.
Thank All.:|
