Solidworks electrical project recovery

Hi all 

I'm taking the liberty of creating a post because I'm having a big problem, I've created several schematics in Solidworks Electrical, and I wanted to rethink everything for the new one I have to create, so I did the following manipulations:

- I wanted to change the location of the "Folder containing projects" to say to save the whole thing on a drive just in case...

- Which consequently, a few days later, when I wanted to open one of my already created projects, the project manager told me that he could no longer find the files...

- In a panic I searched right and left where to find these files, without success at first, so I (Second Error) deleted everything that was in my project manager... since he couldn't find the files for me anymore it was useless...

- I then understood and saw where these projects are saved, so I put back in the settings the original location of the "Folder containing the projects", only they don't reappear in my project manager...

- I tried to create a new one (which creates a new folder in the save location with a new ID), and tried to copy and paste the items from another project into this one but it doesn't work.

 

Do you have a solution to my problem? Because indeed there are quite a few hours on these electrical diagrams, even if I have them in PDF format (no TEW unfortunately), I'll take a long time to retype them...

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards 

Florian

Hello 

I don't know SOLIDWORKS ELECTRICAL but maybe you also have an automatic backup in C== >temp

I don't have it...

I even tried to restore to an earlier date, but apparently this function was not active on my pc, no backup ...

The only solution I still see;   This is if you have been working on the network can see with the IT department to have them look for the files in the folder(s) before the deletion date.
