Old Hard Drive crashed. Many GIMP graphic designs on disk.

Have new Hard Drive, and external case for old drive folder/design
recovery
(if possible).

My Questions:
1. Where do I look on the old hard drive for the designs? Which
folder/subfolder?

I'm guessing that you made your designs and saved them to your GIMP
folder?
If yes, then on Windows 7 or higher, you'll find them under
C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.8. Otherwise they should be
in
your Home Folder\.gimp-2.8. If you are using a Mac, they are under
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/GIMP/2.8.

2. If I find my designs -- where do I move them TO on the new hard
drive
(Gimp 2.8.20 installed) so I can use them again?

Move them to the same spot as above.


Am I out of luck -- or is recovery possible?

This depends on how much damage was done to the HD. You may have to get a
hard disk recovery program or send it to recovery experts depending on how
much your data is worth to you.


Thanks VERY much for any assistance.
