What he tried to get rid of. If the stop error is there his attempts at deletion were probably futile as it appears like destroyed a system critical file and locked him out of Windows. Those files were still there-all of them. All you do when you delete a file is mark that space available for new information. The file is still there though and can easily be retrieved. I've pulled photos off drives that have been deleted for several years. I've even retrieved deleted music files from my mp3 player even after the recycle bin is empty. It is pretty easy. In the hacker community, for several years it was fun to get old drives from the Salvation Army and see what was on them.
I was not talking about JUST the computer, I know that can be retrieved. I was talking about what was with the rest of her stuff. Maybe like a journal.. or who knows what else.
