      First, please try and form coherent sentences, using full words like Windows.

      Second, give more information about your problem.  Why is windows gone?

      Third, give more information about computer.  What version of Windows?

      Do this, and we will try to help you.

          I personally have never played POP2, so I could not tell you.  Perhaps someone else who has played it could.  You could try exploring the folder yourself, just make sure to not delete, move, or alter any files, or else your game may not work.  Look for files with sav or sv in the extension, or "save file" in the description.  I don't know how POP works, but if you can name files, search for a file with that name.  If it saves by numbered files, search for those numbers in the POP folder.

              here is the output of tree command in cmd.
              tree >popww.txt

              D:.
              ÃÄÄÄMenu
              ÃÄÄÄPOPWWProfiles

              maybe POPWWProfiles is that place that we search.
              in this directory you can find only this -->SafeProfile.DAT
              but the size of this file all time been 760 bytes.

              maybe this game located save game in windows drive in xml file .
              like "neighbor from *censored*".

              i can't find this answer in ubisoft site.
