I also wondered if she accidently combined the .fdb file into a folder on the desktop. But then I thought to myself, No, nobody would have their family file directly on the desktop.
A worst case scenario would be that she accidently combined the fdb file on the desktop into that special folder known as the recycle bin! It that is true, then she needs to be very careful not to empty the recycle bin but to open (double click or right click it) it which will display everything inside of it. Then locate the fdb file and right click on the file and select restore.

It has a much more logical way of searching for files. She should search for something like *.fdb. I would think that what your mom probably did was combine her family info into another folder on the desktop. Terry (not a USian) From: LegacyUserGroup [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Amy Sent: Saturday, July 23, 2016 17:23 To: Legacy User Group Subject: [LegacyUG] Open Family File Lost Asking for my mother She was moving things around on her desktop. When done, she went to her Legacy 7.5 and opened it. It opens to one of her picture files for her to look at pictures. NOT her family info. We can not find her Family file? What could she have done? If we go to "File, Open Family File" it does not have anything? Nothing is in her Recycle Bin so it has not been deleted. I tried to Restore but nothing happened. HELP PLEASE --
