my problem is that i accidentally deleted the notes gadget on windows vista that contained some vital information.
I have searched arround for methods to recover it and have found this on your site: Retrieve Lost Notes Of Windows Vista Sidebar Notes Gadget.
I typed in this: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Sidebar and it came up with two paragraphs of technical language preceded by the headings "{root} and {hashes}. Is this the missing data?
The Microsoft MVP's following instructions confuse me as i am poor with computers so if anyone could give me a walkthrough as to how to convert it back into my notes i would be extremely grateful. thankyou in advance
