Anyone who's ever used a computer for any length of time has experienced the stomach-dropping sensation of losing an important file through bad karma or injudicious use of the Delete key. Sometimes, though, what's lost can be found again.

on 8/22/2008 You guys are great. Thanks for the good suggestions. I understand that I can't just download a program until I back up what I have. I do have a disc drive with good capacity BUT - will it affect other files if I am just looking for the specific ones? Will it damage randomly?

on 8/21/2008 I lost geneological data. I didn't delete it it just became inaccessible after a routine maintenance session. I suspect dumping cookies had something to do with it. If I downloaded a data recovery program on my hard drive would it be able to access this information? The info is on my hard drive
