Where's all my xar files gone? Suuntos lost files thread

[haakoo]

Hi,

Maybe a longshot,but do you remember a filename?
Try to find this and you'll might find a xar file with another extension
then you might find the other files by searching on this extension

I know this sounds really stupid but didn't you ever do a backup?

Have you tried running CheckDisk (Start->Run->chkdsk)? Probably not going to do too much if you've already tried some recovery tools, but if there's anything hinky about the directory structure of your disk, it might fix the problem.

Actually come to think of it you should probably open a command prompt and run it from there. Otherwise the console window will disapear when it's done running and take with it anything it might have told you that could be important.
