I'm gonna' kill DH

Ritzy19 · November 2011

A few days ago I vented about how DH has been F'in around with my laptop and installed some new operating system. He assured me that he saved all my files on his USB thing. Great.

Okay, so last night he goes to put them all back on the laptop and SURPRISE! the USB no longer works. Now he's "looked into it" and somehow it's going to cost $30 to get the license code to some program that will be able to bring my files back.

W.T.F.

I'm so pissed. I seriously think I'm gonna' murder him. Super Angry

Ugh! I'm sorry you are having to deal with this. I hate it when they try to "fix" something but just end up making it worse then it was before. Also most of the time I never even thought anything was wrong to begin with.

I'm seriously in tears right now. All of my financial spreadsheets are on there, lots of pictures that I obviously can't get back now, my Excel sheet with all my addresses, pretty much everything of importance that you can have on a computer.

Oh, and this $30 miracle fix is apparently a joke too.

I'm seriously gonna' poison his dinner tonight. Hmm

I hope, for his safety, that the "fix" works. I hate it when they screw around with our stuff. For this reason, I am very protective over my computer when FI has it. He likes to "tinker" with electronics, and while he knows what's he doing, if he has my computer and is clicking around, I'm like "What are you doing?!" Angry

Fingers crossed for you though.

Oh no! I'm sorry Ritzy. I hate when they have to mess with things that are fine to begin with. On a side note DH has a computer business. If your DH wants to give him a call PM me and I will give you his contact info.

Oh no...our computer just bit it a couple weeks ago and we were able to recover all the files on it thanks to some computer company guy, it cost us $90, but it was worth it. I hope you can fix it and get your files back!!

Will the flash drive work on another computer or does it just not work at all? So sorry! Canton Computer has helped us in the past when we got the blue screen of death. GL!

Let me know if the 'fix' works! A bit ago, we 'lost' everything on our laptop. EVERYTHING. But somehow dh was able to find his fantasy football spread sheet he had saved.... nothing else??

Ha! Sounds about right.
