System Recovery wont work as it doesn't recover files, just restores the previous configuration. I use a free tool called Handy Recovery. It doesn't even need to be installed, just run the executable and it will work. Did have to use a bit of JAWS cursoring though as whilst tabbing gets you to some parts of the screen, there are others which don't appear. Do a search on Google for it, that's what I did.

Right, in a genius moment I've managed to permanently delete two folders, two quite chunky folders actually. So, does anyone know of a tool that might help in recovering this lost data? I can ask for sighted help if need be.
