Right - I was hoping other users on the list, like here, but nope. No even
a second look by anyone.

I've been looking in various ways, and I just checked another Windows
system - this one is a single users (as opposed to a server), and it's the
same: a) it seems to have completely flattened the directory structure,
such that everything is visible in one directory, and b) not just from one
user, but all of them.

*sigh*

I was just trying to restore one single file... but as I said, I can't
even find it.
