Why does the international keyboard institute insist of puting the end and delete keys next to each other? I am a big user if SHIFT+DELETE when I want to delete a file, and only use the recycle bin if I am unsure if i'll need it again. Anyway, when I download files from the net I save them all onto a dedicated S:\ drive with it's own hierarchy of categorised directories. In the root of my S:\ drive I place all of the odd little files that either I use frequently, havent got around to categorising, or don't fit in anywhere else. I bet you can guess what I have just done, no? Yes, I selected a file to delete it permanently, which under sods law would start with a number so it was at the front of the list, depressed the SHIFT button on my mouse and went to hit DELETE. Instead I hit END, and subconsiously before I even had time to think about it I corrected myself and hit the delete key, followed immeadiately by RETURN. * (* This has become one of my "built in" key combos like CTRL+X, etc, that I can and do press without thinking about them.) I have just lost all of the useful little bits and bobs i've collected over the past year or so. Nothing overly large to download again - if I can remember what it was and where to find it!

David Wulff wrote: Why does the international keyboard institute insist of puting the end and delete keys next to each other? I agree! Also annoying is having the insert key next to Page Down on this MS Natural kb. I often am scrolling through my documents with the page-down and then start typing when I reach the section I want, only to find the frikking thing is overwriting the words, not inserting. Doh! Much smaller worry than yours, but annoying all the same. David Wulff wrote: if I can remember what it was and where to find it! Come on David, scream, scream, SCREAM!

Anyway, if you don't move or copy the files on that drive too much just grab some disk utility with a low-level recovery and there is a good chance to get all or most files back...

The very nature of a "scrap" drive is that it changes too frequently to make backups of, especially when you consider that was my home PC, which does not have any tape drives or even a CDR/RW drive, so it's floppies all the way. :( George wrote: disk utility with a low-level recovery That was the first thing I tried. I've got Lost and Found x.x but it doesn't like compressed NTFS drives. Can you recomend another that would? I haven't changed the drive since the "incident" on the off chance I could restore some of it. ________________ David Wulff http://www.davidwulff.co.uk "I loathe people who keep dogs.

I know this has been a few days, but I just noticed the post. I have used this one very succesfully in the past, and I am pretty sure I have used it on NTFS drives. I am not sure if I have used it on compressed files or not, but it is worth a shot. It is pretty cheap too. File Recover [Edit] It looks like the NT one is currently under development, this is odd as I am sure I am a registered user with a version that works on NT. I am not sure what is up, I will look at my copy at home a post an update to this. I may have the program name wrong, though this looks right? :confused: [/Edit] Jason Jystad Cito Technologies www.citotech.net Sonork ID 100.9918 >-------------------------------------------------< Every program has at least one bug and can be shortened by at least one instruction -- from which, by induction, one can deduce that every program can be reduced to one instruction that doesn't work. >-------------------------------------------------<
