Hi everybody,

I just ran freefilesync without looking what I was doing. It deleted half of my folder on the usb stick. As it is fat32 I can't find any trash folder. What can I do to get the files back?

Thanks,

Once you are at this point ...
1) Don't use any software that would write anything to the stick
It might overwrite any data still on your stick and make it unrecoverable.
2) Use any suitable "Undelete" tool that suits your operating system
and can handle Fat32. Just do a search for undelete fat32 and your OS.
