    Winblows just lost 100+ files on me in a network transaction


    Please tell me there's some way to recover them! This represents countless hours of work down the drain.
    All I did was cut from the source folder and paste into the destination folder on the target machine across a simple home LAN. The transfer dialogue came up, showed all the files transferring, then closed. No errors or exceptions. Now, the files are gone. They're not in the source folder; they're not in the destination folder. I've searched every drive on the source machine and every drive on the target machine. They're just gone.

    Can anybody help? Does Winblows cache this stuff somewhere that wouldn't show up in a search, maybe?

    network help 10/100 speeds?

    hi ,i have the 3 PC's listed in my specs all on the same network through my router which is fine ,i can manage that *Smile Winblows just lost 100+ files on me in a network transaction :)

    my question is on each PC it says its connected @ 10/100 ,maybe im totally wrong but i assumed i would be able to transfer files over the network at 100 ? but seemingly itll only transfer @10 or 11 ,is that right ? if thats normal how would i go about getting the 100mb speed over the network,obviously i know i aint gonna get that online *Stick Out Tongue Winblows just lost 100+ files on me in a network transaction :p but it takes an age to copy over large amounts of backup files and im desp to speed it up.

    thanks.

    windows 10 deleted my desktop files

    Step 1 - I upgraded to Win 10 and lost all my files on Desktop.

    Step 2 - Found the files in Network - USers- Desktop

    copied all files again to desktop.

    Step 3- Restarted my machine again and lost desktop files again.

    Step 4 - As suggested did the following as listed below but dont find my files.

    • Press “Windows + E”, open This PC/Computer
    • Open Local Disc C, open Windows.old
    • Click on Users, select your User name
    • Go to desktop folder
    Cant find my files. Why is Win 10 deleted files again and again from Desktop ?.

    Basic Network guide

    I'll be adding a small page on doing this in windows vista soon, since XP is the same with a step or two less, i assume people will figure it out.
