Please help. I accidentally deleted a folder full of mp3 files. It was too big for the recycle bin so it was completely deleted. Is there any way of getting them back?

Your precious mp3s are not lost just go to www.Downloads.com and search for data recovery programs, or file recovery programs, in the meantime don’t go saving or installing any large programs to insure you don’t write over the mp3s.

Good luck

possibly.

but STOP USING THAT DRIVE IMMEDIATELY. If the folder was on the main system drive, i.e. C:, stop using your PC immediately.

Then look for some file recovery software. I do not know of any to recommend but am sure someone will recommend something soon.

your mp3 folder has just been marked as free space, the files, but if the free space is written over theres no way of recovery. so get and use a recovery program asap
