Howard: Not completely a bad habit; saves a step...especially if you're in your email as you then don't need to go into your deleted items (or whatever it's called) folder and delete the unwanted

But I used Recuva on it, a program that's supposed to get it all back.  Well, it's all back but they are empty files.  I tried to get GoldWave to make them well again but it just crashed.  I opened

i make sure i put a coppy of everything i have on an external hardrive. then i coppy everything on that one to a second external hardrive. may sound crazy but it's been forever and a day since i lost

Aha. I should try that with the supposed discord sound files too as they have no extension and I can't even figure out what format theyr'e supposed to be. I want to change the sounds as I don't like

Hi! Audacity has a import feature that import just raw audio. That might help. /A
