hecker Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 How did you erase it? You can's see it in the Trash because the directory is hidden. You can try taking a look in the trash via terminal: ls -la /Users/your_user/.Trash/ You also might be able to get it back if you run Data Rescue II.

Bluprint101 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 enable hidden folders with any utility program and check your root ~directory there might be General folder called trash..... wouldn't hurt to try i think i saw those folders when i was looking at my partition through windows..... (not saying you should reboot.......don't reboot) you could also try creating a new user just making a folder (in The /Users) renaming it......and backing up there after all those make a back up of all your files onto an external or another partition Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/139831-help-i-deleted-my-usr-folder/#findComment-990602 Share on other sites More sharing options...
icefireicefire Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 I erased the folder by overwriting it, but I guess it didn't copy because somehow it is back.
