Deleted Workspace in PDMLink without checking in or uploading?

[gpedros]

I've accidentally deleted a workspace and was wondering if it's possible to recover it. We are running version 12 of PDMLink and version 7 of Creo

Hello,

The deleted workspace is not possible to recover in Windchill. 

You can be lucky and there could be local files with last modifications from Creo.

You can use WC File Recovery to try pickup creo files from local cache.

The case CS104751 describes how to use it.

If the files were uploaded to the server and 'remove unreferenced files' hasn't been run yet, they should be available in the file vault folders as well.  Finding them can be tricky, but not impossible.

True true,

Or there could be next possibility if IT department is opened 😄

One customer recovered Windchill from backup to another machine to grab just one WTDcoument that had been accidently deleted month ago :D.
