hi guys,
I was using a free folder hiding application named FREE HIDE FOLDER......

Using this application I had hidden some folders in my other drives. Due to a system crash I formatted my system and load the OS again(Windows XP SP2)....now the problem is.......the hidden folders that are located in the other drives are not showing up.......but the drive's free space hasn't increased.......I know the folders are not deleted........n they are there...........

Can anyone knows how to recover it???thn please help.........I had many important data in those folders......

waiting for your quick reply guys........

Just re-install that Free Hide Folder application and un-hide those folders.

Well, don't worry by formatting your hdd you can recover your data if you formatted ur hdd100times by using data recovery software you can get it by searching on google. It has 5mb on size.
