    Followed instructions LOST EVERYTHING after changing ownership name


    I went through the steps to change ownership name on my HP Laptop. I have lost everything and I see events log with changes made and errors. I can not even use the search engine or anything on my laptop now. Everything is just errors. I can not find a system restore or anything to go back. Please Help me I need my computer badly, I have all my school work and business stuff on it and somehow there is no system restore. I do not know how the backup has also been deleted.Thank you so much.

    :)
