I had my HDD connected months ago when I made a restore point. . .if I can’t use system restore then what software can I use to go back 3 months to the files that were on the drive….

I deleted a very important folder from my jumpdrive by mistake and it did not go to the recycle bin. Can I retrieve this?

in need of a good one,but mostly safe for the computer and with a signature.

I have a sony Vaio, which never came with an installation disk.
I just had to have my western digital hard drive replaced by warranty.
My vaio recovery disks will not work this time around due to a bigger hard drive, but they did originally in 2008.
Being told motherboard may be dead, but bios runs fine.
Where can I get a windows XP installation cd, as I have a valid key code on my laptop, but sony offers no free service

My mom just deleted all my autosaved files while trying to use my computer. If there anyway to possibly get them all back? One of them was my summer assignment and I do not want to start that over again? Thank you!

In case your wondering what it is: When you exit out of word, it asked if you want to keep the autosaved files, she clicked "No delete all files, I am done looking at them."
Wow, I can’t believe I missed that while writing my question, I thought of looking at the Recylce bin like right after… thanks!

I would like a program that is free and not really complicated, because my cousin deleted four years of documents from my computer by accident and I NEED to get them back, as I’m writing a book and it was half finished and now its gone and I would like it back. So the main thing is it needs to be free, because I do not have the money to pay for anything.
