incorrect it resets all files used since the last opening of any file to its origanal state, you should know that all data on a HDD has at least 3 to 4 copies of itself that you have no control over. Only way to truely lose data is to hard wipe it with a wipe over with random 1's and 0's at least 5 times, usually 7 for good measure and even them criminal investigation teams can get stuff back lol. it also does what you put above which is what it should be used for probably, i just like to abuse it because its worth it.
