Background (i.e., why): My wife's computer, a four or five year old Intel
machine with Windows 8 as an OS. IE 10 upgrade installed and Microsoft
Office Home and Business 2010 installed and with a single hard drive (partitioned
as C: and D:) suffered a hard drive failure. Drive was not being backed up
to a separate device (my fault). I paid a commercial data recovery outfit
to try to recover files on the hard drive (both partitions). They were
partially successful.
She was/is interested in recovering some MS Word files, the IE Favorites,
and email file(s), contacts, schedules and address book. I once knew where
at least most of those files were located in a default installation and what
their file names were. But I have slept several thousand times since I last
had to do anything similar.
Can anyone tell me the path to and file names of any of the above? I
realize that in the case of the MS Word files, both the file names and their
location is or can be optional and probably have a .DOCX extension. But at
least the default folder path/name would probably be helpful.
