Having issues with what you asked me to do, keep getting errors. Anyway, I pretty much have everything back to normal except for 3 things. How do I restore my favorite websites, e-mail contacts and old e-mails that were in my Windows Live mail?

I can't find anything thru the search for my e-mail contacts or old e-mails. Would that be something my internet service provider can help with?
I don't know how to restore old e-mails and e-mail contacts.
About favorites, if you find them by using search you can either open them one by one and add them to your favorites or right-click one of them, select Properties and tell me what you find. Then I can help you copy them to the current favorite directory.
