Files not showing up in folder after system restore
Recently my computer was attacked by a virus. The virus made it so i couldn't access my C drive at all, but could still use all my start up progams. For some reason it also erased all of my desktop icons, except for diablo2 LOD (don't know why that one was still there....)
Anyway, after removing viruses with malware bytes i did a system restore to about 2 weeks prior. After the computer was done everything seemed fine. Computer was running fine ect.
My problem is files that were contained in my folders seem to have disappeared. I know the files are still on the hard drive, but some of my folders disappeared (these are folders i created loooong before what the restore date was) making me unable to access the files unless i remember their names and can type them in the windows explorer.
I discovered the files were still there when running a video game emulator, i clicked open rom, and just typed in the file name of one of my games i couldnt get to through my computer anymore, and it worked, game loaded up.
Anyone know how I can get my folders to come back, so i can easily access the files in them? If more info i needed let me know. Any help is greatly appreciated.
