Hi
Do you mean a System Restore? If so, SR doesn't monitor data files and they
should still be there. Have you tried searching by extension?

If you are referring to the F11 or F12 restore to factory original, that
copies the hidden partition back to the system drive, you will likely
need to have a data recovery service find the files.

I inadvertently did a system recovery to original as shipped
configuration on my HP Pavilion. I had to reinstall a lot of programs
and reset many settings but I didn't lose any data files.
As requested by others, please provide more details.

everything...I have retrieved some things back but my print is bigger than I
like and when I scroll, it has a wavy, jerky way of scrolling...I have done
everything I know to change this....please help....LA

"Print"? Do you mean the screen font?
You are probably running at a lower resolution than you used to be at.
Right-click on the desktop and choose Properties. On the settings tab, drag
the resolution slider to the resolution you prefer.

Print and font are not the same. Print is the term for sending output to a
printer and having that printed.
Did you install the latest video driver for the graphics card? Also it's
not a good idea to post a new question as a reply to someone else's thread.
Create a new thread for your issue.
