Laptop brainfart

Overnight my laptop has deleted all my documents. Other than throwing the bloody thing out of the window, does anyone have any suggestions? Help!

I have some documents I don't use any more. Would you like those?

They'll do.

If you do decide to go with the window option make sure you open it first.

Back stuff up.

When you say deleted, might have a virus or wonder what you have been doing.

First try restoring back to a earlier date.

If that doesn't work need to run file recovery software on the disk.

Goodluck

@soapy_jones I have made that mistake before!

Are you sure it has deleted them? It is possible that you have a virus which has hidden them (still in the same folders but made them unseen); check that first I suggest.
