my old data gone

Post by ovil11 »

Hi,

I was using a free version of EssentialPIM from 2012 since January, 2013. Unfortunately, I never extracted or exported any of my data. A week ago a virus compromised my windows 7. I tried to open EssentialPIM but instead of loading my data I was treated like opening the program for the first time.

Now, after saving my harddrive on a disk, I set up a new windows 7. Under "roaming" in my saved old windows user profile I found a folder called "EssentialPIM" containing the files TEST.EPIM and test.epim.bak (from Jan. 2013).

Do you see any chance for me to get my old data back?

I'd be extremely happy if that would be possible. Thank you in advance for any answer!

Hello,

please search your computer for *.epim and *.epim.bak files. Copy them to a new computer with EPIM Free installed and try to open it there.
