RMRK is retiring.
Registration is disabled. The site will remain online, but eventually become a read-only archive. More information.

RMRK.net has nothing to do with Blockchains, Cryptocurrency or NFTs. We have been around since the early 2000s, but there is a new group using the RMRK name that deals with those things. We have nothing to do with them.
NFTs are a scam, and if somebody is trying to persuade you to buy or invest in crypto/blockchain/NFT content, please turn them down and save your money. See this video for more information.
How is this even possible?

It's human to misdo
My PC did something weird two days ago.

I was using my 8 GB USB stick and when I disconnected it, the icon didn't dissapear.
And when I tried to open it, it worked and all that. Just as if the stick had been connected.
I could even save edited files.
I restarted the PC and then everything was gone.
This has just happened to me once but I thought I should tell either way.

My question: Is there some kind of cache or something where the files could have been copied to?
I'm using XP.

Its called a delayed write fail. Your data needs to be recovered from your flash drive if you need it back. How important is your data?

Where there are no gold stars, demerits, or infractions. <3
