Retreiving a deleted neighborhood?

<< < (2/2)

nil:
It's always advisable to make back-up whether one's playing or experimenting.  The thing is as long as one is anal about the custom game data, they should back up anyway just in case.

Yet, one may a morning-after approach right after such deletion like with recovery software to try to recover the deleted files.
a few major things to consider:

1. the recovery software(s) have to be installed before the event happened or at least installed in an another OS to operate the data recovery process.

2. the game engine might have alreeady overwritten the lost files in question coz the TS2 is an arbitrary monster that can turn read-only attribute in to writable one and overwrite files without prior consent.

3. there is no writing to the HD sector where the data are at by whatever means.

4. try it anyway regardless of a lesser chance.

5. the worst is such data was overwritten and is a mess.  The worse is such files are in an unrecognisable form, supposing one is energetic and patient about recovering it!
