SteamCMD whiped whole my D drive!!

[Wheatley]

It whiped my whole D drive when I installed rust delicated server (exprimental)

Whiped?

I gotta run me some SteamCMD :)

I think, you should reinstall the D drive probably :) You do have a backup, right?

Are you sure it whiped it (Y/N)?

What was on the D drive that got whiped?

Sometimes anti-virus scanners remove Steam games as suspect into their secure vaults.

You know Steam has a backup feature.. https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=8794-yphv-2033

You could try a file restorer, assuming you have NOT done any writes on the D drive, and try to recover SOME of them, then redownload and recheck integrity. THEN BACK UP (NAS is useful here) you can also use Clonezilla or something for imaging drives.

Well, you may be able to recover SOME files, to save redownloading ALL of them again. If it is just games, you are lucky.

Kanske, kanske inte :) Du kan försöka det.

är du svensk? but I don´t want to download a program who takes all files back, beacuse I have done that before, and all went wrong, it cleaned whole my drive instead of restoring :(

Nej, men jag kan förstå lite :)

Gratis fil restorer :)

DO NOT write to the D DRIVE, Restore to another drive, if you can.

Well, you can TRY to recover SOME files to save download time. You will not get them all back though.

Not sure how steamcmd can 'wipe' your system given that it doesnt do a hel lof a lot other than manage your servers

Well, apparently it "managed" to wipe them :)

I have seen apps with strange bugs that for some reason, delete their own install folder :) (I won't name it but it's a big business app).

[Wheatley]

hmmm yeah, thats sad for me

[Wheatley]

can i prevent it to whipe the drive if i install the rust server in a usb stick?
