Kuraikiba Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 I ACCIDENTALLY DELETED MY DATA FOLDER! The data is gone, and didn't go to the recycling bin, please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ita Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 1: embrace the fact that some files will be lost forever.2: get some data recovery software (download.com lists a few, pick one that looks good) and run it. With any luck, you might be able to salvage some data. Should steps 1 and 2 fail, re-download all relevant files from the Nexus. Personally, I like to keep all downloaded mods in a separate folder so I can easily reinstall them is anything unforeseen happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuraikiba Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) Done and done. But now, Oblivion will not start up. Edit: To determine why it crashes at startup, I thought putting up a pic of my load order would help. I think that is part of why it is malfunctioning. http://i55.tinypic.com/rw3q0y.png Edited June 17, 2011 by Kuraikiba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have mods, WinRAR will save them Its is a free download, if you dont have it. Might wanna go to the topic I posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuraikiba Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Wait, will this save my save data? I really would hate to lose it... REALLY HATE TO LOSE IT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoSxorpio Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 There is no magic to make it all come back. You should always make backups of any data you deem as important. A reinstall is inevitable. Even the best recovery software doesn't get all the data back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuraikiba Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Crap... That really sucks. Fortunately, most of my data was pretty screwed up on certain parts, so it's easier to get things back to normal, then find the stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
