I suddenly noticed that Microsoft deleted all "program files" folder and "Program Files x(86)" folders from windows.old directory. I have to purchase license version of data recovery tool to restore those deleted files.Īnd even that recovery tool was also not showing all files.Ĭan any one tell me if I did something wrong? But these files are deleted by Microsoft in 1 day only.Ĭan any one tell me if there is still a way to restore my deleted files? I checked using data recovery tool and I found "Program Files" folders deleted by Microsoft.
I read some articles and I found that Microsoft keeps files under windows.old folder for 28 days. Microsoft cleaned those folder even though my c:\ had more than 100GB free space available. I lost a lot of important data because of that. MicrosoftĮven did not care to confirm about that before doing it. Later on when I started installing MSOffice and visual studio 2012 professional edition and other required softwares, I suddenly noticed that Microsoft deleted all "program files" folder and "Program Files x(86)" folders from windows.old directory. and I planned to restore some required files from windows.old folder. Under this folder I found my old "programįiles" and "Program Files x86" folders as well. I also found windows.old folder in my c:\. As expected windows installed very well as well as I found all my files in place. I choose option to keep my files when re-installing windows.
