I have running Windows 2008 Server machine on my SSD disc from VHD file. Today while I was working with Windows the 30% of files disappeared. There are only folders left and no files. I can't find some of files in User folder and Program Files but not all. I can't start any program but Windows working fine. Maybe someone know what is going on?

Have you made any changes to the machine because it sounds like something has become corrupt. You might have to restore from a backup that you do have....right? – Tablemaker Nov 23 '11 at 13:49

@Shads0 I just working with Visual Studio 2010 and suddenly the running programs have started faulting. I have checked HDD(c:\) and the free space increased by about 30% in my eyes. Never saw anything before. I can't start any program or find my personal files but strange thing is that Windows itself running fine. – Tomas Nov 23 '11 at 13:56

@Tomas You do have a backup for the machine, right? (Hint hint) – Tablemaker Nov 23 '11 at 13:58

Yes, I have VHD file backup, but I would like to find out what is just happened with my OS. – Tomas Nov 23 '11 at 14:06

You might suffer from a filesystem corruption. Run chkdsk /F <your drive> to check for possible errors. You might have to restart your system if <your drive> is the system drive.

The next shot would be a malware infection. Try scanning with an AV of your choice. – the-wabbit Nov 23 '11 at 21:29
