Hey guys..
I have got a problem. I had a few files on my external hard disk and then I decided to hide one of the folders.. I used Free Hide Folder- program to hide that folder with password. No problem.. It worked very well until I formatted my normal hard disk which included the program files of the Free Hide Folder- program.. After formatting I installed Windows Xp and realised that my files were "gone" , because I didn't remember to unhide that folder. 🙁 Please, help .. How to get my files back?
 
Did you try reinstalling the Free Hide software and check to see if you can see the "hidden folder".
 
Well, you may have to contact the software support people to see if they have a backdoor or recovery method. Usually they should as I would imagine you're not the only one who's done this. Good Luck!
 
I have just done the same thing.

Did you work out how to resolve the problem?

For once, there is very little in google about this problem.

HELP! 😱
