")Hi,

the video folder (the standard one under User/username) has suddenly
disappeared. The shortcut link in Windows Explorer under "favourite links" is
still there. The data also must be somewhere as the free space on my HDD
hasn't increase.
I have searched the whole drive and any folder but it's nowhere to be found.
Any help on this?

Pete
 
Check recycle bin? Seriously, you may have accidentally deleted it.
Also, did you try to find any of the video files that were in that folder
using Advanced Search or the open file feature of the last video player that
had played one of the video files?

Click to expand...

Or he moved it? I've lost count of the number of times that I've had
nurses and admin folks call and tell me that their folder "disappeared"
and "Could you recover it from tape?"....

Typically what happens is they try to "double click" on a folder when
what they actually do is "click, move the mouse and then click", thus
dragging the folder onto the nearest folder and dropping it into that
folder. Try doing a search for the folder name....
