Vista cleaning files
Hi folks newbie at this so be gentle.
I ran a disk cleanup prior to going a backup. The cleanup took some time the
when it have finished I started getting errors. When I looked all programs
had gone missing Documents folder was all but empty. Tried a restore but
failed, repaired windows and tried again. Restore worked but no files
returned. Tried chkdsk with fix and still no joy. The size shows that 60G is
being used so I think the files are still there but windows can not see them.
Any ideas?

Obviously the cleanup wasn't thorough enough. It should have removed Visa
completely.

Love and Kisses,
Doris
