Is it possible to undelete deleted files from my Pocket
PC?

2 Excel files were unresolved during a sync. I changed
the names of the files on the PC. Then when I synched,
the 2 files on the Pocket PC were deleted and replaced by
the 2 on the PC whose name I had changed.

Can I undelete and restore the two that disappeared from
the Pocket PC?

Thanks,

Scott

On the pocketpc, no, however do a search on all of the filenames that it
might be as there is a backup section under activesync that is in
different locations depending on your version of windows.

Do not connect again until you search for the files.

C:\WINDOWS\Application
Data\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Profiles\<profile_name>\ Synchronized_Files_Backup

C:\Documents and Settings\Bev\Application
Data\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Profiles\<profile-name>\Synchronized_Files_Backup

(replace the "_" above with a space)

Good luck,
Beverly Howard
