in addition to the above, if you wish to recover the data on your deleted partition install testdisk to your USB stick or download the CD version. With that you may be able to recover the entire partition intact or at the very least save your erased files, depends upon how much you've added to...

Without the details that WK asked you for, essential for a complete answer, let me say this. As he said, you are probably talking about an SD card right? About the size of a fat postage stamp? You should use that as a data storage device and it probably shows up as the D drive. Move and store...

Actually, putting the operating system on a small partition and having a BIG partition for your data is a good idea. makes upgrades a breeze and can allow your windows to use it as well.

Be advised, thumb drives have limited input output lifespans and using them as a sub for a hard drive, ie running your OS off one, you will shorten it's lifespan considerably. Do not keep any data you need there.

You should also check the boot order in your BIOS. It may be pointing at the linux loader rather than the windows loader.

Did you use salt and lime with the tequila?

If they are stand alone software you could create a link to the launcher. Otherwise I don't believe that you can without jumping through a lot of hoops like creating shortcuts to every file it is dependent on which I'd certainly not want to do. If space is your issue you could just keep the data...

Using the gui navigator (folder icon) and go to the testdisk-7.0 folder that you unzipped. You should see the file testdisk_static. Right click it and select properties. Copy the location and then open a terminal and paste (shift + ins) that after cd ie cd /location/of/file the command line...
