Hi
I’m writing this being an inch close to breaking down! I can’t seem to open any files on my desktop that was saved before a certain date (precisely a week ago/today is 9th june 2015). Files include jpgs, music and video files, pdf, psd, ai EVERYTHING. Anything I try to open opens the respective application (eg. If I try opening a word file MS word is launched, jpfs launch window image viewer, mp3 launches windows media player etc) but ends up with an error message something similar to windows cannot open this file. The strangest part is anything saved in the last week functions just fine! Also I don’t think there is any issues with any drivers as I can watch youtube videos (so the audio and video drivers are present) What scares me the most is when I tried opening those corrupt files in other devices it gave me the same error msg. It surprises me how is it even possible that ALL the files in a system can get corrupted! I wouldn’t be this devastated even if I lost my entire property because the files I’m talking about is MY ENTIRE LIFE’s work especially considering I am a designer they are my biggest assets. I also tried restoring to the earliest available point but yielded nothing. The issue is so bizarre that google can’t seem to show me one page or post relating to a similar issue. I sincerely hope to get a solution for my issue else it would be like rebuilding my entire life after an apocalypse. Any help is appreciated!
