    Check Event Viewer System Log for Disk (usually 11) or NTFS (usually 55) events.

    You may have bad blocks on your disk.
    Which is why checkdisk should be run....even if eventviewer does not show anything.

    Seems like our methods differ. I prefer to act on information rather than stab in the dark.

    Fair enough - I apologise for being testy but your post read as though I should have been aware of your previous one. You posted while I was typing.

    chkdsk can indeed correct errors that down show in EV, but it won't ever force a modern drive to remap pending sectors that fail on write. That's why I don't like chkdsk /r as a first course of action.

    I hope the hw failure is not the case, the HD was only few weeks ago on warranty replace. I'll check the disk tomorrow and post the results.

This is a bit of a strange problem, admittedly. Nonetheless, I'm hopeful that someone here may have a solution. Win 7 Explorer has this "feature" whereby you can undo all sorts of file operations (rename, move, delete) by pressing ctrl+z or by clicking the "undo <whatever>" menu item in the...
