I uninstalled some games on my secondary hard drive yesterday and it wiped out the entire folder.
I tried System Restore and although it listed all the games in question under Programs that might be restored none were. It completed successfully but changed nothing.
I have no backups for the hard drive. Anyone have any ideas how I might restore the folder? Or a time machine? One day, all I need is one day.
It would not hurt to try ShadowExplorer
It is a free utility that looks in your Restore Points and lets you recover the contained files similar to an undelete utility.
Even if it does not help in this instance it is a good utility to have in your toolbox.
Hi:
Perhaps try Piriform Recuva, another free utility
(Disclaimer: I have never used it myself, so this is offered "as is")

Fred, have a look at this Revo FAQ website.
Scroll down to section 10.3, "Uninstall (Remove) Programs Related Questions".
Then scroll down a bit further & you will see "Is there a way to undo an uninstallation / uninstalling of a program?". Then follow those directions & you may be able to recover the program.
