  1. if i delete a volume will that erase everything. Is so how can I get my files back


    I wanted to create a Partition but it didn’t let me. So I deleted the volume and made it a unallocated space. I did this about twice in a row because i didn’t get it the way I wanted at first. I then proceed to see if my files are still there and they weren’t. I tried every recovery software and nun of my files came back. These files are compressed winrar files and folders holding all of my music things like vst’s, plugins, my flp’s/ projects and my audio files. Pretty much my life’s work so if someone could pls help that would be amazing.

    :)

    Finally! An alternative to eraser...

    it looks much cleaner then the eraser so that is a big step up.

    Why does my login scree offer me windows 10 on volume 2 and also windows 10 on volume 4?

    I have the same problem, but both of the Windows 10 copies are on Volume 2, so my PC keeps rebooting without actually going into Windows.How can I erase one?

    Removing errant files in the "System Volume Information" folder under Windows 10.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your response.

    I suggest you to first stop Volume Shadow Copy service and try to remove the files and check. Follow the steps provided below:

    Step 1: Stop Volume Shadow Copy service


    • Press Windows logo Key + R key.

    • Type services.msc.

    • Search for Volume Shadow Copy service.

    • Right click on it and select
      Stop.
    Now, take ownership of the System volume Information folder and then try to delete its contents.

    Step 2: File permissions.

    • Right click on System volume Information folder.
    • Select Properties.
    • Go to Security tab.
    • Select the user name.
    • Click on Edit button.
    • Under permission to Authenticated user, check on full control.
    • Click on Apply and OK button.
