>I am new to python and was trying to program with txt files, and tried to move the txt file to a new directory. i did not read very carefully about what shutil.move(src, dst) does and it deleted some of my files. How do i recover my lost files. plz help!
If I read the documents properly, shutil.move() does not just blindly
delete files (it does a copy/delete if crossing file systems, otherwise it
just does a rename).
So where did to instruct it to put what had been the source
file/directory? Look in that destination location...
