    Hello, My PC Was refreshed not that long ago, and I was supposed to Keep My Files. It removed VLC Media Player, Which Deleted Years of Videos. They were in a Separate file, not in the VLC Directory. Is there any way to get them back?


    Thanks

    -Andrew

    Need Serious Help: How To Record Video of What is Done on my PC?

    I suggest the following simple steps:

    1. Set the autosave options in MS Office to a low value say 5 minutes.
    2. Setup file history to autosave frequently - the shortest period is 5 mins
    3. Install Macrium Reflect Free and configure it to do a daily incremental system backup

    You should be well covered if you do the above to protect your key files.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Will this build be good for 5 years?

    Bro wait for next gen CPUs and GPUs. I was going to do the same thing and they stopped me from taking that big wrong step. Let's say i7 5960x is out for two years and is still on top places of the list it may hold up for two more years in total of four. But if you go for upcoming extreme series it will last for four-five years from its release date which can get you near to your five year pc specs. Same goes for GPU, so wait till next gen is out. All the best for your build
