Hello Everyone,
I'm in need of some help. Over the past month I migrated my primary Windows PC into a VM on Ubuntu. I took 2 snapshots early on as I loaded the OS (Win XP). Yesterday a co-worker was curious about the snapshot feature so I showed him how it worked - mistakingly reverting back to the latest snapshot. By doing this I completely wiped out 2+ weeks of data that was on the VM. BIG OOPS.
So... Please tell me there is a way I can get back to the previous configuration. Is there anything I can do to recover? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Unfortunately, unless you have a recent system backup, in a word, you are SOL.
