hello folks. So this is what happened...

i wanted to transfer ps2 isos using winhiip. when i clicked the folder, "apparently" i dragged and dropped to one of these weird labeled folders like d2addsdgfde0. I wanted to make the undo move, but it didn't allow me to do it. I panicked not b/c of the isos but i had many other great rarities on this folder since the time i had the computer. When i even went back to the folder it said 0 bytes yet large amounts of space is being taken from my HDD, so in other terms i knew they were still there. What i did after that is restored my computer to an earlier time with my external hdd plugged. It seems that everything is back but i keep getting access denied messages. Now i want to know how to get around this and gain access to them. I hope that doesn't mean that files from that folder are damaged. Any help would be very appreciated. Thank you.
