Had a major blip recently. I think what happened was that a family tree program malfunctioned when I was up-dating the details of a family whose name began with Pin... As a result, everything in Documents after Pin was lost - many, many folders! Fortunately 98% was backed up. (I'm running XP on my PC, btw)

When I try to copy the missing folders back into Documents, still they are not there, although when I then copy individual folders, a window says that they are and do I want to replace them. When I run a search for them, they are only to be found on my back-up HD - not my PC.

Any thoughts, please?
