  1. Accidently deleting C: Drive


    This is very dumb of me. I was loading my external hard drive and I remembered that the last time I used it I had loaded windows onto it. So I was like I should wipe the hard drive because I don't need it anymore. I see windows folders and delete all the folders and go to the restroom. I come back to almost a GB has been deleted and I realized I had deleted my C: Drive on accident ( I am very sleep deprived atm). I've recovered all the files from the recycling bin but the issue is that whenever I load an application like Word, I have to go manually find the folder. I would rather not have to do that for everything. Need help please.

    C Drive icon disapear?

    I was trying to install need for speed pro street demo. I install it in C drive directory. Somehow it got currupted.. so I delete the files manually in C drive and reboot and download pro street again.

    How do I make my C drive picture Icon back?
