I deleted a user profile on a machine where the user was let go from the company, I thought i had got all the documents, but she had a folder on her desktop I didnt know about.

So, I deleted the profile before I knew I needed it, is there any way I can get this back? I have tried some recover tools but with no luck.

This folder must be stored somewhere, as the file size taken up is the same before and after. And since this folder i need is full of pictures from over the years, I figure it is of good size.

Can anyone help me, I am in a bad jam.

HAve you considered signing on as a user with admin rights to the file and taking ownership of it so you can do with i twhat you want?

Thanks, but I ended up getting the files back using the Recover 2000 tool I found on the internet.

Thanks again
