Data recovery

Hi, everybody. Although I’m grateful to be able to use my husband’s computer (thanks, Ernie!) while my hard drive is at the lab, it is a nuisance working with unfamiliar software, settings, keyboard, and mouse. And since I can’t post pictures directly, I haven’t felt like writing here.
