I just lost 44 GB of data that I downloaded in the past two hours. My PC started to get laggy and it got stuck so I just shut it down believing that all will be well since the data has already been written to disk…

It actually might be, because now a magic file appeared on my hard drive (a file that was once deleted) that I can’t delete. When I try to delete it, even with admin rights, it says No such file or directory
