asked on

windows explorer

My OS is win 7 Prof 64 bit and when I was using the windows explorer, I clicked on a directory, and I am not sure what then after.  But the directory disappeared.  I checked the deleted folder, it was not there, and a search did not reveal anything.
Another time, the same thing appeared, but the directory appeared on top of the C:\windows icon.  Not sure what is going on.  please give me a clue of what may have happened.  Thank u.

Are you sure you didn't drag and drop it somewhere else?

in response to jcimarron, the directory completely disappeared.  While in the 2nd case, the directory landed on the top of the listing in WExplorer of the C drive.  My access program was able to  load the file that was in that directory, and I quickly changed the name, and it then appeared again in the C: drive.
