Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)


Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Default Recovering Deleted Files

I'm new to this, so please bear with me.

I was trying to upload some video files and accidenlty deleted them. I tried to recover them in the "Recycle Bin" but they were not there. Then I did a complete "Search" of the Drive C for the files, and they did not turn up.

Does anyone know how I can recover these files?

Thanks!

Tex

Hold on now! Your files may still be recoverable. What you need to do is get an unerase tool. I know that Norton SystemWorks will do the job, but there are other programs that will do the job. Go to www.download.com to look for some freeware and shareware software unerase utilities. You need to do this as soon as possible though. When you delete files in windoze all that is done is the file name is changed the file is still on the hard disk. However, windoze can no longer see the file and will overwrite it if it needs to. I hope you recover it.

deepblue,

Thanks for the information! It worked (sort of). I recovered about 95% of my files. I'm still missing a few, but nothing to get too concerned over.

I used Active@Undelete. The URL is: http://www.active-undelete.com/googlegl.htm. It has a "Demo" version for free, but because my files were so large, I had to use the pay version. It's $40.00, but I think it was money well spent.

Again, thanks for helping me out!


Tex

If an un-erase tool of some sort doesn't recover your files they must have already been overwritten. I'm afraid that it's almost impossible to recover your files if that is the case. Make as little changes as possible to your hard drive and try several different tools to find them (shareware and freeware, I reccomend trying to find a free or trial tool before you buy). Good luck.

RTM!!! There's others around also for doing the same thing. Here's some references to others: Accidental deletion of my library - Gnutella Forums, & also this PC Inspector File Recovery (click on link)

DELETING FILES FROM LIMEWIRE LIBRARY-DON"T! - File recovery advice! - Gnutella Forums

* Edit: Restoration - Free software downloads and reviews - CNET Download.com seems to be better than pc inspector!

Another free one is ASEUS Deleted File Recovery ___ Recuva - File Recovery sounds like a good free one too.
