restore the files which are deleted along with the profile
Hi, I created a profile in Firefox and deleted. While deleting I selected delete files from the pop up, instead of Don't delete files. My complete data is deleted. It contains personal data and office data. Please help me on this to retrieve the data.

Hi
If the profile is in the Windows Recycle Bin, you may be able to restore it.
Unless you have some other third party software installed, I am unaware of any default way to recover the profile folder and data.
I restored it. But I did not get the data. Is there any other option to retrieve the data? Actually, I tried with Recuva Software. I got some of the data. But, not able to open any of the file.
Hiya
So you have recovered the old profile, but cannot use it?
Retrieved some of the files. Not completely. But, not able to use it.
Okay.
If you just have partial files, you should be able to copy them into (overwrite) a clean Firefox profile. You will need to do this with Firefox closed, but I think (others are more than willing to correct me) that this represent the best chance for partial recovery of your data.
I lost all my PDF, Excel and word document files. And, In created profile, I did nothing. I ran one selenium script(Java) and deleted the profile. but, the data is deleted from the root folder.
