The files themselves are fine, it's
the file structure that's scrambled. For example,
multiple
(partial) pictures files scattered throughout her file structure.

My wife is running Win 7

and documents are scattered throughout the recycle bin and
in dozens of spots throughout her file system.
It looks like her file
structure was hit with a randomizer. At this time there
is no telling how much was lost. (With that much damage,
I can't believe that it's all there.)
Finding and putting things back in a reasonable order is
going to to be a major job. She would like to know:
1) what caused it
2) once she collects things, what can be done to prevent
it from happening again.
Answers will require the help of someone who knows a lot
more about Windows than I do.
Any help, suggestions, or name recommendations, either
on or off list, will be gratefully accepted.
