Files from before a backup?

#1 Post by electrizer » Mon Jun 30, 2008 7:03 pm

Hi Guys!

I did a very stupid thing. Instead of doing a Quick Backup (using ThinkVantage Rescue and Recovery) mistakelny I did the Full Backup, losing all my files. :(

I is possible to get them back somehow?

Thanks in advance!

What files did you lose? Any back up shouldn't touch the "originals", so the original files should still exist on your machine? Sorry, I'm confused. :?

This is the thing. There are two types of backup in Restore and Recovery program. Quick one, restoring only the applicationsm sysytem and the registry, leaving the rest of the files intact.

The other, Full one, replaces entire content of all partitions.

I was wondering if the Full Backup makes some... backup of the files from before... backup ;) This sounds funny but is not to me :(
