how do i recover data after system restore?

‎05-05-2012 08:10 PM

I performed a System Restore on my HP notebook.  Before I performed the restore I backed up data files onto a USB flash drive.  The restore of the original software was a success....but how do I restore the data that was backed up?

Look through the files on the flash drive for an .exe file. Run it to restore files to a folder on the laptop where you will move them to proper location.
