Lost files
big BIG problem! After I installed this theme
http://en.crystalxp.net/bricopack-vista-inspirat.php
all my wallpapers and digital camera pictures are nowhere to be found... I searched for all the pictures on my C: in "search" and couldn't find them. Is there a way to retrieve these files? My mom is going to kill me if I tell her the pictures are gone, because she had group pics with friends and family in there.
p.s
These pictures were in...
Documents > My pictures
Any help would be so appreciated!

Are you looking for them as jpg or bmp files.
Good Luck

According to that web page, you could just uninstall back to the way it
was before .. it does not say that you should lose your photos or anything
else by installing the app (however, since it is not in 100% english, it is hard
to tell exactly what is what)

how about running a "system restore" to a point previous to the installation?
That should put files back to where they were.

Hey Strawbs: That assumes that Phil even has system restore points turn on.

I have a program called Restore, that i could e-mail you. It lets you restore deleted items.

Here is a free program for restoring deleted files, as well as a deleted file shredder
http://www3.telus.net/mikebike/RESTORATION.html
Simply type in the file extention [.jpg .bit whatever] and it will show you a list of all deleted files and partials. If they haven't been over-written you can recover them
Easy to use, although it will only recover 1 file at a time.
Good luck
edit: sorry trucker, overlook your post

The write-ups I read said that it would create a restore point at the time of install, just figured it might be something Phil hadn't thought about or maybe realised.
Besides which - It's always good practice to keep system restore switched on for the primary drive - even if you disable it for others IMO.
But Yeah! I assumed before knowing.
