In 12 years using ubuntu I never did something stupid like this:
It started that my trash bin did not work any more.
I found an instruction how to repair it:
sudo bash
cd ~/.local/share/trash
rm -r *.*
I was working and did bash copy paste it into terminal (on left monitor while I was working in the middle...) hit several times enter and it happened:
I believe there was something wrong with the folder... so the terminal did not enter it... I rm -r *.* my entire home folder....
It was because I did not even took care what I was doing...
I rebooted in live USB - made a image from the harddisk containing home...
I found http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/ to recover del files... but I am still unsure...,
I did a backup of most files 2 weeks ago - but that does not include all the settings.
Any succestions how to proceed whould be highly appreciated....
