I followed some spectacularly bad advice from the internet when I was trying to delete two useless folders from my main file folder. Well, I now know that Windows means it when it advises against moving system files. Because I moved system files and then weird stuff happened, and when I tried to fix the weird stuff, I screwed up my Dokuments folder. I managed to save two important sub folders but data was lost (I don't even know how, my computer-savvy roommate said it's not supposed to happen like this).

Among the lost data is the certificate for submitting my taxes, so I have to go through the whole process again. Should at least be quicker the second time. But I'm mostly worried about the damage I may have done to Windows. It's still behaving not right but I hope the problem will stay contained within this one folder, I can work around that.

Sigh. So unnecessary.
