I ran a recovery on my computer to block a virus, and lost all my pics. How do I get them back??
I hit F11 when I was booting up my computer and it ran a recovery. It didn’t give me a timeline to work with and I lost pretty much anything on my hard drive. I have some of my pics, saved in my e-mail. But everything else was lost. What can I do??
It is possible to recover files with file recovery software. I reccommend Recuva (pronounced "recover"), it is a freeware Windows utility to restore files that have been accidentally deleted from your computer. This includes files emptied from the Recycle bin as well as images and other files that have been deleted by user error from digital camera memory cards or MP3 players. It will even bring back files that have been deleted by bugs, crashes and viruses!
There are two kinds of people: those who have experienced data loss, and those who will. Remember the 3 rules of computing. 1) Back up 2) Back up 3) Back up.

What do you expect: it effectively wipes your hard-drive of anything non vital.
Use recuva (http://www.recuva.com/ ) to scan your hard drive for these lost files.
