1.	Solve : FINDING MY DELETED EMAILS ON DOS?
Answer» I have Windows Vista and I know how to find DOS. I have deleted some emails that I need to restore. I have misplaced my DOS for Dummies book and need to know how to find my GMAIL, live & yahoo emails . I found all the directories that windows has and there was no google, yahoo, gmail or MSM files. Where are they and how do I find them? I used the type and then either the directory or file name and had no luck finding the email files.Quote from: codan7 on May 02, 2009, 07:59:29 PM I have Windows Vista and I know how to find DOS.

I used the type and then either the directory or file name and had no luck finding the email files. Email? As in you had emails and you deleted them? You can't get them back...at least not with Dos (or what you think is DOS)...Gmail & Yahoo & MSM are hosted on web sites, the emails are not on your computer anyway. I wonder if he means MS DOS, or Command Prompt. Either way, it doesn't matter at all. Correction-I meant to say command prompt. The only PC I have that can access DOS is the OLDER one.If I'm not mistaken, emails on Yahoo, MSN, Gmail and the like are stored not on your computer but on their server. If you delete them, there's no way to retrieve them unless somehow you hack into the server and hope that they have some method of making backups...? That's all I can think, and I wouldn't have the foggiest where to begin. If you had a program like Outlook or Thunderbird, that might be a different story, since at which point the emails ARE being saved to your computer. However, retrieving them after they've been deleted still poses a problem.. it comes down to being able to retrieve any file after you've deleted it, and whilst that does become the new problem, I still haven't the foggiest on how to solve it, with or without a .bat file. The most I can say WOULD be to take it to a technician.. but I don't know how deleted data is able to be retrieved. That's something I've YET to look up.
