From: Joe on 24 May 2010 20:38 This program saved my bacon more than once recovering files. Even after a reformat as well: http://www.recovermyfiles.com/ (usually nothing is ever totally gone from a hard drive unless the hard drive itself is physically broken. It may not be possible to retrieve without the right software..but in all likelihood it is still there.)

From: efrance on 25 May 2010 12:24 Yes, that is exactly what is happening. Instead of a new website saved on the desktop it created one incorporating all that was on the desktop. I've tried since setting up a new website and saving in another separate folder location on my server and am getting the same problem. It is incorporating everything from the previos files. For example...if I'm trying to save it to C:/my documents/websites/new site - all of the documents that are in the my documents and websites folders are also showing up within my website folder list. Any idea how I can change this? I have no idea why it's now doing this as I havent' had this problem before. I have asked my IT consultant to look into the deleted desktop files to see if he can restore any of them. Thanks! "Joe" wrote: > This program saved my bacon more than once recovering files.

that happens when you create a website on your desktop but forget to create a folder for it there, sooooo when you next open your website your entire desktop becomes part of the website...not a nice thing...I know I did it once.
