Evening all.
Wondering if anyone can help.
A few nights ago I deleted a user profile from my pc thinking it had nothing important on. I chose not to save files. Turns out it did actually have a load of important documents in a folder on the desktop.
I've tried easus and recuva to recover the files but I don't really know what I'm doing and not having much luck.
I've been scanning the users folder with the deleted profiles name (the folder still exists but with just a random Microsoft folder in app data) and have found a few files but they are all coming back corrupted.
Does this mean I am out of luck? Is there another location I should be scanning or any settings I need to change? Is there better software? Can professional recovery have better results?
As the files were on my main c drive which has been in use I guess they may have been overwritren?
It's an ssd if that makes any difference.
Many thanks
