      I have just done a stupid in backing everything up I have managed to loose the bits of code I was working on...hopefully I can remember the changes I made. :( (matter of interest there is an undo for copying files is there?)

      I can't stand rewriting the same code twice. It's bad enough when it goes against the DRY grain in day-to-day coding, but when it's because you lost the code and have to rewrite it.. it's the worst feeling of wastefulness, so I try to avoid it (saving often, committing often, etc.)

        I agree that's why I backing up just chose the wrong folder (or the right folder in the wrong location...) Any relation to Grace Hopper?

          If you've enabled System Restore on the drive, you can go back to a Previous version of the folder/file.

            Ctrl-Z works in windows explorer just like it does anywhere else.

                  Yeah. But not if you've overwritten some files ;)

                          Are you working in .NET? Did you compile the code? Have you tried to build the code since? If the answer to 1 and 2 is yes, and 3 is no, use Reflector to try to resurrect your code.

                              No. The spelling is different.
