undo batch process

hi:

I'd like to get some help in order to try to solve my problem.

I've just run a batch process to convert RGB images into CMYK.

The origin and destination folders were different ones.

When I've run the process I've got CMYK images in both folders and lost the RGB ones I'd been working on for weeks.

Is there any way to get RGB images back?.

thanks

    Look in the recycle bin. If they're not there, the only option is to go back through the history states when the file is still open. Once closed, history is gone.

    What I do to avoid this, is to specify a dedicated "outbox" folder on my desktop as destination for all actions, and then end the action with "close without saving". This way I know the original will never get overwritten. If run as a batch, I just set destination there as "none".

    You've probably ended the action with "save and close".

    there were no history states as the images were not opened. I just run the batch process.

    The destination was set as "folder", not  "save and close"...

    I don't have a backup. I was going to save the images today in a external hard disk after having both RGB and CMYK versions of them.

    Anyway, did I do anything wrong or was it a problem with PS?

    You can do that in a pinch, but colors have been clipped in the conversion and you can't get that back. So you won't get back the original.

    That is why my first question was about backup.  Something all computer users should have.  One good thing you have if you put you images into your own cloud. The cloud is a backup IMO.
