How do you restore a deleted Folder and the Test Cases that were in it?
I deleted a folder that contained 170 test cases. Now my user wants them back. How do I restore the folder and test cases?

Hi,
One of my users has done something similar and accidentally deleted 2 folders. Did you ever get an answer to this question or do we need to get SmartBear to carry out the restore?
Thanks,
Bill.
If you 'removed' the files in TestComplete and the files are still on disk, then you can Add them back as an Existing Item. If you 'deleted' the files (and they are gone from disk), then you retrieve them from the backups that you have been faithfully maintaining and Add them back.
Note that 'Folders' in the Project Explorer view are logical constructs. You won't find a folder on disk. When you add back the missing tests, you'll have to recreate the folders in your TestComplete project.
(Oops. This is QAComplete, not TestComplete. Gotta check which group I'm in...)
