No, on the Scratch download, not the website.

Re: I accidentally cleared all of my Scratch projects!!!

How'd you do that?  hmm  You should check your recycle bin; there's a good chance that they're all there.

Re: I accidentally cleared all of my Scratch projects!!!

Ouch...

But you know, if this happened recently, you can probably retrieve them.

When you empty the recycle bin/trash, the files aren't really deleted, just marked as "free space" to be overwritten over time. (I know because my uncle is an IT tech and retrieves files daily  tongue )

I've never done it myself, but you can phone pretty much any computer store, and they'll tell you how.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.
