A folder changed to a "file"

[ktow]

Anyone know how to get past a folder that has decided to be a file?

I have been working off an SD card and found the shortcuts on my
desktop leading to a "file" now instead of a folder. The the file
says it is only 2kb, however, the old contents were somewhere
around..... 84mb of excel, word, and access files.


Help.....please......

I'd try a data recovery utility...
it's possible the SD card might have come with one
