How do you restore a deleted user account?

No such button appears. It only seems to affect the C Drive and it says it will basically get rid of installments and such that may be causing problems.

Hi,

Open windows Control Panel, open System, click Advanced system settings, click the Advanced tab and under 'User Profiles', click the Setting button.  Is your profile still listed here?

I made a new user account so I can use the computer and that one shows up. I don't know about the old one though.

Hi,

The only thing I can think of suggesting now is to try using recovery software to see if this will locate some of your old files - this won't be able to restore your old profile, but it may worth trying to see what it finds.  A free example of this sort of application is on the following link.

I deleted my user account by accident and need the emails on it back!!!

I'm running windows 7 and whenever I try to run system restore it says 'Driver not found'.
