Hi guys today i was giving my pc a good clean using Advance system optimizer and i did a disk/system cleanup, i usually dont but on this occastion i ticked find zero length (empty) files after i did the scan there was 144 so called emtpy files and i clicked to start delete them (move them to recycle bin) i then thought maybe this was a bad idea,
so i clicked stop and then went to Backup and restore in ASO (not windows system restore) and clicked backup and i clicked the backup which at the time i had only read the day (26) thinking it would be this month, but after i did it my whole windows was different even my log in password was back to what it was months and months ago, and then when i got into windows my computer, recylce bin etc had lost there icons and just look like this:
