I've been pretty lucky, but I've finally had an encounter with a project
glitch. I've got a Paris song project that, while working on it became very
sluggish and upon crashing down corrupted the files in the folder. I was
actually rendering all new tracks at the time for a backup. So, basically,
I've got the folder name, which looks good, but the two sub-folders inside
it (which contain all the PAF audio files) have funny looking random caps,
and Windows ME won't let me access them. Anyone else run into this before?
I'm pretty sure that my hard drive bay cable was just loosing a connection
that caused some disk-writing errors - the hard drive is fine now, except
that folder.
Anyone ever recovered PAF's before?
TIA,
-Carl

Ok - yeesh, I've recovered my files!!! I'm thinking I got pretty lucky
because there was a "shadow" of them somewhere on the drive - as if they
were deleted (I never deleted them). And this little freebie did the
trick...
