I had 2 users account on my computer, both administrator. I nerver used one of them , so I decided to removed it.
Not only It removed it, but I lost the 19 GB of files I had on my other account in"My document".
Why this happened ?

I tried files recovery program : (File recover from PC Tools software) but if it found all the files I had lost, it only recover 3% (peanuts...)
Any explanation and solution
Than you
