Lost work Aaaaaagh!
Tired and full of pills, I finally did the unthinkable. After a break I went back to the word processor and restarted the top file on the index. Bad mistake, it was the one I had just backed up to…and then tested cos I’m so conscientious.
This meant that I was working from my Sony ‘micro-vault’ USB device without noticing. Well that’s okay until I backed up from the HD on top of the file in the Micro vault.
On a hard drive, one can use lots of tricks to get data back. So does anyone know if there are similar ways to retrieve data from a solid state USB ‘drive’? LR
