I just got a burner for christmas and I want to back up some of my downloads, the problem is I accidently have errased a couple of them, and don't want to re download them. Is there any way I could recreate the file that I dowloaded? I've installed the programs from the orginal dowload so I have them.
For example
Download Directx 8 sdk
Install the SDK
deleate the download
now is there any way I can re create the dowloaded file?
Sorry, but unless you buy a special data-recovery utility(and even then it's not a guarantee), you're gonna have to re-download that stuff. Hope you have broadband. BTW do you need the installer? Just burn the regular files. If they're too big, compress them.
Remember that an installer does a lot more than hold files.....it sets up system variables, registeres COM objects & applets and edits the registry as well as changing directory structures on different parts of the drive...
As previously said....get downloading! :)
*cries* if I can download it, oh well. I'll do a back up on my computer
err... i don't know if it'll work (in fact i doubt it very much) but if you have installShield crap that comes with vc6++ you might be able to package the files back up. install shield does keep a record of what it registers so it can unistall. might work. if your really lucky.
