Deleted stuff in directory

[djchase88]

Hey,

I accidentally deleted all the files in the directory such as the area to store you files...is there any factory default that I can restore to? I haven't uploaded anything yet...all the files that X10 put in, I by accidentally deleted...

Thanks,
Chase

The files are not recoverable. You could request your account to be deleted and then create a new one.

The files aren't terribly important. You will lose all settings from CPanel and will have to go through every tool to restore them.

I just made a folder named public_html and then it automatically created www folder. What ever I put into one, it copies into the other. Thanks for your help!

Actually, it does not "copy" the file.
There is only one copy of the file.
The folder 'www' is an 'alias' for the folder 'public_html'. So if you try to delete the "extra copy of file xyz in www", you are deleting the only copy you have.

That's good to know! Thanks!
