I ran recuva to recover all the files on a hard drive that I mistakenly deleted. I restored all the files to another hard drive. The hard drive that I deleted everything on was my previous Drive C that became corrupted. I didn't intend to delete everything on it, but I did by mistake. I reinstalled Windows on a new hard drive. When I recovered the files to another hard drive, it caused a problem with windows. All the recovered files and folders have a connection now with the new Drive C. All the files got restored to the recovery drive, also got copied to the new Drive C. Also, doing an action on a file in the recovery drive acts also on the same file in Drive C. For example, if I rename a file in 'My Pictures" folder in the recovery drive, it renames the exact same file in "My Pictures" of Drive C. If I delete a file in "My Pictures" folder in the recovery drive, it deletes the same file in "My Pictures" of drive C. From what I can tell, the files actually exist only in drive C but exist in the recovery drive in name only. If I delete the "My Pictures" folder in the recovery drive, it deletes the "My Pictures" folder in Drive C. Does anyone know how to fix this?
