Thread: Lost file after dragging onto desktop
hmm.
i'm sorry if i'm posting much, made bit of blunder. switching on windows, have few basic folder available me on desktop, folder keep recent school notes.
i'm used whenever drag , drop, @ least on desktop, having link program there, not actual program. well, moved wanted on desktop, deleted, recovered trash, dragged onto desktop again (don't ask why, happened) , straight-up disappeared!
tried open file folder under "recent documents" no avail! had error message read /home/arthur/documents/college/dat business/thermochemistry.odt not exist".
i'd know if it's possible recover file, , how prevent things happening in future (is possible set when drag onto desktop, places launcher/link in lieu of actual file?)
bunch in advance! without of forum, i'd lost!
open terminal , execute command:
if file can't found ( don't see in output ), sorry .. it'll quite hard recover ( i'll let others post suggestions .. haven't done recovering yet ).code:cd $home/desktop && ls -al
