    Accidental mass file deletion in SharePoint.


    Hi There -


    We have been on the phone with MS many times over the past two weeks and still cannot figure out what happened. One of our user's computers deleted over 50,000 files from our SharePoint. The employee did not initiate any type of deletion. We have no idea how or why this happened. We were able to restore the files, but I am afraid it is going to happen again.


    What could cause this? How could it happen? How can I ensure it does not happen again?


    Thanks,

    Jeanne

    :)

    Need suggestions to recover deleted data from HDD

    As is my username I was a bit of a big n00b this morning, installing a fresh Win8 and accidentally deleted my downloads HDD instead of my SSD, don't ask, I was hungover is all I can think.

    It hasn't been formatted or touched since I pressed delete so am hopeful I can recover most of the files, any suggestions for software to do so?

    deleting hard drive files

    Hi,

    May we know what type of file are you trying to delete? Would it be Office documents, media files, or picture files? If you're trying to delete files for free some space on your device. We suggest to perform a Disc Cleanup. Kindly follow the steps below to
    perform the task:

    • Type in Cortana Disc Cleanup
    • Choose the files to delete
    • Click on "Clean up system files"
    • Click on Ok

    For any concerns, don't hesitate to get back to us.

    Regards.
