windows live photos lost..........

[denise]

have lost some photos on the computer thankfully I had e-mailed them to my sis & she still had them.
When she e-mailed them back to me I can only view them through the e-mail as the windows 11 had removed them from the skydrive.
Is there any way I can move these photos to my computer or to a pen......
Any ideas please................ Thanks

Can't help feeling that I'm missing something here, but while you're viewing a photo have you tried 'right-click' on the photo then 'save picture as...'?

Tried that but no use, its only showing the photo in the resized size for the email not the original size it was sent.
Or so my hubby tells me lol.

It is sometimes possible to recover files from a local PC hard drive using recovery software, but if it was only stored on the Skydrive then you might have to chalk it up to experience. I use online storage for files I'm sharing with, or sending to, others but would never resort to it as my main or back up storage for important data.
