Hi
I have alot of documents that somehow have changed to shortcuts and when I try and open them, either in Word or Excel, by using the shortcut it tells me:
File not found
Check file name and try again
I think my son (2yrs) has done something to it, I have tried a system restore, but nothing.
I have tried to search for the documents but it only finds the shortcut.
I have tried NTFSundelet, but couldn't find anything.
This is all my work for my studies and I am very desperate for this information back as it has to be handed in very soon.
PLEASE HELP
Bronnie
