I did a system restore with the option of keeping my files so it would just restore the OS. But now I don't see most of my files but I only have 44 gigs free of a total of 680 gigs about the same as before. Most of my files were in the downloads directory. Were did the files go? They have to be there somewhere right? I'm thing of yanking out the HD and using my HD dock with another comp and trying some recovery software. Any recommendations on software or any other tips?
