yogurt Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 (edited) I've been using Win Tool Kit for 1.4.0.74 for about a week now, I keeps all my addons, installers, updates, etc.. in the same folder as WinToolKit (F:\WinToolkit)..\WinToolkit..\WinToolkit\Addons..\WinToolkit\Installers..\WinToolkit\UpdatesUp until today I've always closed WinToolkit from within the loaded GUI. Today I opened up W7T and the usual splash screen appeared ***Checking for Updates*** the update dialog appeared giving the ususual options to either accept or decline the update. I clicked on the exit button, and poof! all my files and folders in my ..\WinToolkit directory got nuked including the .dll that Wintoolkit depends on.Lucky for me, I was able to recover all my 922 files using basic file recovery techniques. Not sure if this behavior was is a result of a bug, or just heavy activity of that folder. However, no errors were revealed on my hard drive after the event and the hashes on my recovered files are 100%.

Legolash2o Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 F:\WinToolkit is a temp folder and you shouldn't really be putting everyday files in a temp folder EDIT: I've made some changes to reflect that by renaming the folder 'WinToolkit_Temp' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
