Public bug reported: After an update I allowed on december 8th, I discovered that 4 of my most important folders were gone completely, and could not be restored by whatever actions. In these folders were about 40GB of valuable data. I tried to get a restore point working, but it didn't work out, so that this data seems lost. I would appreciate any information concerning how to recover/ restore the data!
1) Ubuntu 11.04 2) unknown 3) I only expected an update, and did certainly NOT expect so many data to vanish completely! 4) As mentioned before, valuable data got lost, and could not be restored, neither using a restore point, nor by any other measures.
