Need help finding my pictures after I tried backing them up to external hard drive!
I tried to back up all my photos from my windows 7 laptop to an external hard drive & left it transferring overnight as it was estimating the time to copy and got to 36g and counting so I went to bed. When I have come to check the transfer worked ok, only one folder was on the hard drive which wasn't a folder I had in my pictures but an old one of some pictures/videos and I'm not sure where that was even stored. My massive folder of pictures & sub folders is now 'empty' on my pc and not in the recycling bin.
I've tried searching for folders, the recycling bin, system restore to two weeks ago (which has a couple of folders in my pictures but they are all empty).
So they aren't on my pc or my external hard drive. Any idea where they are and how I get them?
The hard drive says it's only got 4g used up out of 260g odd so it's not got them hidden anywhere.
