Ton, If you have not already, please recommend to him that he run Photorec on the drive which contained the Blender installation. Photorec is capable of recovering deleted .blend files. The names of the files will be lost, but that is unimportant in a situation like this.
It is important that he run Photorec as soon as possible, since the operating system will begin reusing the disk space occupied by the "deleted" .blend files which are now marked for overwrite. Photorec is here: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec - Tony On 09/04/2010 06:01 AM, Ton Roosendaal wrote: > Hi all, > > I've replied to him.
