I can't stand rewriting the same code twice. It's bad enough when it goes against the DRY grain in day-to-day coding, but when it's because you lost the code and have to rewrite it.. it's the worst feeling of wastefulness, so I try to avoid it (saving often, committing often, etc.)

I agree that's why I backing up just chose the wrong folder (or the right folder in the wrong location...) Any relation to Grace Hopper?

You want the approval that you look like her?

No. The spelling is different.

If you've enabled System Restore on the drive, you can go back to a Previous version of the folder/file.

Ctrl-Z works in windows explorer just like it does anywhere else.

Yeah. But not if you've overwritten some files

Guess not

Are you working in .NET?
Did you compile the code?
Have you tried to build the code since?
If the answer to 1 and 2 is yes, and 3 is no, use Reflector to try to resurrect your code.

The answer to all three is yes (dag nabbit )

I was intrigued by the link in today's CP Daily News to the new add-in for Visual Studio from Microsoft Labs, "Bing Code Search," that creates a code-search facility using code from "MSDN, StackOverflow, Dotnetperls and CSharp411."
A short very low-fi video demonstrating this add-in is here: [^].
The UI for this critter appears via IntelliSense (displaying initial results depending on context), as you type: I have yet to find any UI thing to click, or keyboard combo, to activate it on-demand.
I found it interesting that CP was not among the content providers listed for this wonder, but, I am not saying that to make any kind of "point," or imply any criticism of CP ! I trust that if it buys new Marshall Amps for Bob and the Hamsters, we'll see code on CP there in the future; if not, macht nichts.
I am just curious about what kinds of contractual arrangements (both legs of the first-born ?) Sauron of Redmond made with such (relative) Hobbits as StackOverFlow. I've never heard of CSharp411 before, and I have never visited DotNetPerls. I cannot imagine a worse source of mis-information than MSDN !
I find it interesting to think of what the next crop of homework-shirkers and wait-until-just-before-the-exam CP QA forum rescue-me posters might do with this add-in. Perhaps we should expect even more massive code-dumps ?
I installed this critter in Visual Studio 2013; it has yet to appear even though I have been typing what I thought were some tantalizing keywords as bait. I wonder if it's compatible with the EAP beta ReSharper I'm using now.

“Oh, you can't help that,” said the Cat: “we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.”
“How do you know I'm mad?” said Alice.
“You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn't have come here.” Lewis Carroll

We've been involved in many, many VS and MSDN search initiatives over the years.
Here's an interesting test: can you name any community based search initiatives from Microsoft from the past 14 years?

Well, no, because: after I made my vows to Bob twelve years ago, in the Chapel of the One True Hamster, I was faithful ... well, okay, that thing with StackOverFlow ... ... that was just ... you know ... a few one-night stands; any get-togethers with SO now are just like so platonic they could be a video to "We've Only Just Begun" by Karen Carpenter.
cheers, Bill

I...don't know what any of those things mean. I mean, I know what a hamster is, I've been to Stack Overflow and remember that song. But... I think my brain just fell out.

You do realise that Maunder owns the site, don't you?
For future reference, if you want to poke the Maunder, you refer to his attempt at drinking with me and Brycey way back when the Internet didn't have pubic hair.
