    Files disappeared from external HD
    « on: October 18, 2007, 09:24:09 PM »
    I was going through some folders full of songs that are stored on my external hard drive, and I noticed more than half of the files that were in a folder are missing. Gone, nowhere to be found... I mean, I looked everywhere, I did the search, unplugged the external and plugged it back in thinking that would make a difference... I checked the recycle bin... nothing.

    What the *censored* could have happened? I know no one deleted them, and there's no way I could have accidentally deleted them. They didn't get accidentally moved to another folder because I did the search and nothing came up. These files are GONE.

    Somebody please tell me what the *censored* could have happened.

    Thanks guys.

    Just a thought...Enable hidden files on that drive. Maybe they got hidden for some reason.
    Also does sum of all visible files equal to used disk space?
