Windows 10: Files lost due to bad reset windows 10

Hi,


I did a windows reset. In the middle of the reset we had a power failure. When i switched on the pc i installed windows manually from USB. However all the files from before the reset became stored as a TMP file 800GB.



I there any way to restore or recover these files from the single TMP file.


the tmp file is called: Reset_SafeToDelete_OverwriteSpaceFile_0.tmp

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
