If you've searched your computer and the files aren't there (did you use Windoze Explorer?), then it's probably because the files have been deleted - assuming they were ever on your hard drive in the first place. Shrink can't find what isn't there. Do a general search for video*.* If your computer finds it, make note of whatever folder it's in. Then when you open Shrink, just navigate to that folder.
If you don't have the files, you'll have to rip them again to your hard drive. Use DVD Decrypter, or another ripper program to do that.
If you don't have the original handy to re-rip - try Rotary's advice in this link: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/1/203008#1103596 The app used can be downloaded from AD. Check the software tab.
Barry - sorry to have left the thread. The little lady & I went to dinner with friends. (Friday evening where we are.) Thanks to Binkie for picking this up. Looks like it's time to restrict permissions for your daughter's log on! You're lucky it was just movie files!
