I updated and ran ad aware free. It had 4 MRUs and I just deleted them Then I shut down my machine for a couple of hours. Now I have no sound. Can I get back what I deleted and can I fix my Vista Ultimate desktop?
do I need to do a system restore? "CdLSRN" wrote in message news:O1B3pUb%23IHA.5192@TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl... >I updated and ran ad aware free.

It is very unlikely that Ad-aware had anything to do with losing your sound since MRU stands for "Most Recently Used" and those files are not sound card driver files. However, Ad-aware does have a "quarantine" where you can restore the files it deleted. Read its Help file for further details. If that doesn't work, reinstall your sound card drivers.

Whew a False Positive removal action by you ad aware, better replace it or ask an explanation from the developers...
