Yes. Believe me, I just did it. Can someone tell me if there is a way to retreive a deleted project from Netbeans IDE 7.01? I am about to get a heart attack.
I was working on a PHP Application project P1 and it was saved in the folder C://wamp/www/P1. Then I created another PHP Application project P2 and mistakenly placed in the folder C:/wamp/www. When I realized that it was placed in the wrong folder, I decided to delete it and when the system asked me to confirm to delete the 'www' folder--- I clicked on 'Yes'.
So now I can't find the project P1!
It may be a little late to ask how to make backups in NetBeans?

Re: Accidently deleted a project in Netbeans
I don't know netbeans, but probably not likely.
What OS are you on? Most of them you can get something to undelete files, the best action though is do not use the system until you are ready to do this. the more the OS writes, the more likely it is to of written in a location those files used.

Re: Accidently deleted a project in Netbeans
Any chance it threw the directory to the Recycle Bin instead of fully deleting it?

There is nothing in the Recycle bin.
Re: Accidently deleted a project in Netbeans
Best bet then would probably look for an application that will recover deleted files. I haven't had to use one in several years, so don't know which ones would be good to recommend.

I do not know about Vista, but on my old XP machine there is a system restore/system recover program, where when you uninstall things it creates a restore point. You could restore it to a few days before you deleted it, get the file, then restore to the current version?

Re: Accidently deleted a project in Netbeans
Recuva helped. I found half of my files that were deleted.
