Hey guys. I recently had a "dead" drive's information retrieved by a local company. The drive wasn't working anymore so I brought it and another external HDD to the store and had them go in and magically save it. I've got a few questions now that I'm home and looking at what they saved:
1) They got all of the info back (mainly pictures, documents, etc) but everything is renamed with random, numerical names. I get why this may of happened, but is there any way at all to get the old names back?
2) I keep seeing some files and folders that have odd file-types and that I can't open. I figure these are random system file-type docs, but some are over a gigabyte in size. Would this be normal or is there a chance they're my documents as well? I had over 200gigs restored so I have no way of recalling if everything was backed up or not!
Thanks for any info!
