This is a simple question, is it possible to recover one of my Profiles that I deleted by mistake?
I will check that out right now, thanks for the heads up.n4gix wrote:Check your $Recycle Bin and see if the folder is recoverable. It should be.

Not in the game... Open Windows Explorer, and look in the left-pane for the folder named $Recycle Bin.pathfinder wrote:ok, next question how do I find the Recycle bin in the gamen4gix wrote:Check your $Recycle Bin and see if the folder is recoverable. It should be.
Knowing that Windows doesn't really "delete" folders or files, but simply moves their indexed pointers to the $Recycle Bin for later possible recovery, it should still work. The actual folder/file deletion is handled by the operating system.Unco wrote:Wouldn't this only work if he deleted the folder from Windows Explorer?
What if he deleted the "profile" from within the game gui?
No. The program needs to have explicit support to take advantage of the recycle bin. Otherwise it just deletes the file. ETS2 does not support recycle bin.n4gix wrote: Knowing that Windows doesn't really "delete" folders or files, but simply moves their indexed pointers to the $Recycle Bin for later possible recovery, it should still work.
