Everything on my computer's gone.

Postby (=DK=)Samonuh » Sat Jan 14, 2012 7:36 pm

I just logged into my computer this morning, and it was like someone pressed the reset button. Google Chrome wasn't there, my Skyrim data had been deleted, my browsing history was gone, and the default programs that were installed into my computer such as the BestBuy App were back (I uninstalled them when I got my computer). I have Windows 7 and my computer's only a week old. What happened and is there anyway to retrieve my lost data? I really don't feel like playing through Skyrim's beginning again...

Were only some things deleted, or was everything you put on it gone?
There is no feature that I know of where this should happen automatically. Someone would have needed to do a manual restore. That or you are somehow logged in under another user...

Don't know why it all disappeared, but you can just grab a save after Helgen off of the Skyrim Nexus, and then do showracemenu and re-do your character if nothing else works.

You didn't leave your 'Password' available for others to see did ya?? Beyond that, I can only say that the FBI did NOT target you for Termination. May the Force be with you...Always..,
