I repaired my Flash drive and it deleted a whole folder?

I recently had to repair my USB flash drive. on it contained an extremely important folder and i cant seem to find it. when it finished it said it saved everything in a folder called "found" on my device but there is no such thing....

Can i get it back?

(i use windows vista on a toshiba laptop btw)

When i put in my flash drive it always asked if i wanted to repair it or ignore it. So i clicked repair cause it worked before on a different USB. It said it placed the folder "Found" on the device itself. However, the folder isnt there.

you may try recovery software like asoftech photo recovery (http://www.asoftech.com/apr/) to do a scan and see whether files are recoverable.

How did you "repair" your USB? By placing a folder called "found" on your device, which device is it? It could mean your local hard drive, desktop, etc.

Edit: It could mean that the repair couldn't retrieve the file and that the "found" was empty and it did not make it. Other way is you don't have your folders set so that you can see it. You can also try searching "found" in the search bar when you press "start" (bottom left hand corner).

I forget to declare, i ought to take the 30 Gal can a a million/4 mile distant from the homestead, the placement it is picked up.

vista always says to repair it, it doesn't mean you need to. chances are it is gone.
