[QUOTE="lelotortelli, post: 1603894, member: 332730"] Hi there! Yesterday I was trying to automate a couple of tasks. I'm apartment hunting so I wanted to download all images from a certain pages. To do so, I selected the task "SAVE IMAGENS FROM WEB CONTENT" on automator. I use the following set up: - Save images on folder: "XXX" - Use URL as folder's name: "unselected" - Where: "Desktop" - Overwrite existing folder "unselected" To my surprise, when I ran the workflow the first time, it ERASED all my desktop (there weren't many important things, EXPECT FOR 1 freakin file) and kept the newly created folder "XXX". Is there any chance I can get all my previous files back?? (My last backup is from 7 days ago and that file is very recent). [/QUOTE]
