I need urgent help recoverying FILES

I need urgent help. I need to retrieve some files which I stupidly overwritten when uploaded a Profile to the wrong directory. A little background, we have User folders set up on our server e.g. \\Server\Users\username, and we also have our roaming profile location as \\Server\profiles\username. Yesterday I was updating my boss’s profile, and I wasn’t thinking right, and I accidentally uploaded it to \\Server\Users\username, instead of \\Server\profiles\username. When it asked “are you sure you want to upload to this folder overwriting all content” I hit yes, then I realized that I mess up and tried to cancel it. I need to recover those files, is there anyway it could have been dumped in a Temp directory or anything… I have search the computer and found nothing… I NEED HELP, or Ideas on what I should do… otherwise I will be in a lot of trouble, I messed up, and these files were important. Please help me ASAP…

 

My read is that you're in a lot of trouble, since I doubt you'll be seeing those files again.

The classic response to this kind of issue is to erase all evidence and claim ignorance.

 

That is the reson for backups being done on a daily basis.
