I have deleted the Internet Protocol TCP/IP while doing something my
service provider was helping me with. BIG help. And Microsoft says
this can't be done. Well my Widows XP home edition must be one of the
first ones out before they made it impossible to delete. I was unaware
of what I really had done and restarted my computer as they asked me to.
Well, the Windows page comes up with my name and when I put my password
in I get nothing. My Service provider said "oh gosh" you have to go to
Microsoft. Microsoft won't help me because Windows was pre installed
by the company that made my computer and they are to help me. Well
they are no longer around and my backup and recovery disk will not even
work. Is there anything that I can do (besides jump off a bridge). If
nothing can be done, would a computer shop be able to recover all my
stuff that I want ?? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. Penny

When a file is deleted it isn't physically deleted and when file is saved it
isn't necessarily over the original. Let me explain. The computer keeps a
record of all the files on the hard disk. Think of it as an index. If you
were to cross out a line in the index of a book the word or phrase will
still be extant in the body of the book. (The difference with a computer is
that the area of the 'lost' file is available for re-use). It is,
therefore, possible to recover 'lost' files. As you will appreciate success
depends on whether or not the area on the hard drive has been re-used.

There are a number of software that will do the job. I have used and,
therefore, can recommend 'Get data back' www.runtime.org. Restoration
www.snapfiles.com/get/restoration.html is a freebee (which I have not used).

It is highly recommended that the software is installed on and run from
another hard disk (to decrease the possibility of overwriting the 'lost'
file).

All this assumes that, at least, the hard disk will spin. It is possible to
recover data from a hard disk that doesn't spin. This is, however, a
specialist (forensic) operation and will be charged accordingly. It
wouldn't do any harm to find someone local who could do this for you and
assess and possibly justify the charge against the cost (time, patience and
money) of re-entering the 'lost' data. Some work on the amount of data
recovered so if you're looking only for one file the charge may not amount
to much (comparatively speaking),

You should, perhaps, also think of getting a backing up system. You may
like to have a look at my web site www.1001solutions.co.uk for more
information.

Whatever you did, the disk won't be trashed. All your user data is
still on the disk drive. At a computer shop, they can connect the disk
drive to another computer, and do whatever you want with the data.
(Put it on a DVD, put it on another hard drive, or whatever.)

Since you posted this message, that means you have access to another
computer. If the computer is also running WinXP, then it would support
whatever format was used on the disk, and could also copy any data on
the disk.

And if you look at the pictures here, exactly what did you delete ?
Would it be something in the picture in Step 8 ?

Hi Paul:

What I deleted is what the bold heading in number 9 picture says. Fo
what I have read on Microsoft this is very very vital part of the whol
system.
My computer runs XP and this computer runs XP Professional. They ar
both on different service providers (if that matters). I know/hope, tha
what I deleted is in the trash bin so I will go and see if that can b
recovered.

Thank you, Penn

But Step 9 doesn't delete anything. It offers choices but doesn't affect
the existence of the protocol.

Step 8 has an "uninstall" option. Which isn't deleting anything either. The
software is still on the computer. And there is also an "install" option in
Step 8 as well. Which presumably means, you can put it back.

I'm having trouble understanding what you've done. If you changed something
in Step 9, you should still be able to log in. How long did you wait after
entering the password ? Maybe you just need to wait for something to time
out (5 minutes should be enough).

Also, there is "Safe Mode", as described in this article. But at this point,
I don't know what to tell you to do, once you get into Safe Mode, since I
still don't understand what is broken. The OS itself should still function,
and all I can think, is some task that is starting early, has some dependence
on what you changed.

Thank you so much for your help Bill. After I get it fixed the firs
thing I will do is get a backing up system (better late than never)

I have the same problem. My internet protocol was deleted. Everything was deleted in step 8 except for the client for microsoft networks. I have been using software to find these items but have not had any luck so far. Any other ideas? Thanks Leslie

In step 8, I see an install button on the Network panel.
Click the button. On my machine, there are three choices
after that. One of the choices is "Protocol". Select it.
Then a list of Protocols shows up. Select TCP/IP from
the list and continue on. That should allow you to put
back the thing that was deleted. All it takes, is a good
memory, to remember what the Network panel is supposed to
look like.

The following is not my own work and for the life of me I cannot remember
where it is that I downloaded the file but copy the stuff below into notepad
and save as a filename of your choice ending in .reg and then simply double
click on it. I use this for missing or corrupted networking all the time.
One particular virus removes these entries. After that download winsockfix
for XP and run it. Works all the time.

BTW, this stuff below fixes the firewall while winsockfix for XP fixes the
networking.
