I discovered an amazing feature today!  cloud9:

Say (hypothetically) that you had been stupid enough to delete a complete directory of files and didn't have a back-up... not that it would ever happen to me like....  redface:

But just suppose you did for a moment...  whistle:

In Windows 7 you can open Windows Explorer ( [Windows] + [E]) then select the directory from which you had (hypothetically) deleted years of data like...  redface:

The you right-click on the directory and select 'Restore Previous versions'....

You discover that Windows has magically been creating backups of your data every time it does an update and creates a 'Restore Point'... gawd knows where it keeps it all... Shrugs:

You can then simply navigate through the directory structure to fine the directory that you (hypothetically) deleted and drag it back to your desktop!  cloud9:

Hadn't you noticed that disk space was reporting "non-user" areas?
