The other day my laptop messed up after a windows "upgrade". I had to do a system restore, and when I did, it wiped out a bunch of stuff it shouldn't have. Anyway, question:
I'm trying to relocate my favorites on my Explorer list. When I hit the "add to favorites" button, it now adds two urls - one that works and one that doesn't. Is there something that I need to change in settings or somewhere? If you know the anser to this, let me know,please.
While I'm on this forum, a second question. Although its not supposed to, the system restore wiped out a lot of my personal files - docs, pics, contacts, etc. They are no longer listed in the library, or anywhere else that I can find. I thought they were gone. BUT, on my 'recent" list, the files that I had opened recently before the "upgrade" are still listed, as well as their contents. Under properties,it says something about being in a "found" folder somewhere. This leads me to hope that my files might still be on the HD somewhere, but where? I've looked everywhere I can think of, even tried under DOS prompt (but couldn't remember many of those commands . . . ) Any idea on where my files might be - or if they're really still there or not?
Thanks for your help!

To find your files, start, search, files or folders - found, and start.
Cant help ya with the adding 2 fav's - but your favorites are found under documents and settings under your username.
