Can files disabled by Giant Antispyware be restored?

Jessica b.

I wasn't paying close enough attention when the program
asked me if I wanted it to remove a threat and it ended
up deleting some files I really wanted. I can see from
its cleaner log that it disabled them and put them in a
particular folder in quarantine. Now they are all cryptic
looking text files. Is there any way known to restore
them? Any assistance will be gratefully appreciated.

Restoring Quarantined Programs
If you have accidentally quarantined a program, you can
remove it from quarantine and restore it to its original
state.

How to restore a quarantined item

1. From the main screen, or any of the screens with the
toolbar, click Spyware Scan (this is the product icon).

2. On the top right of the screen under the Take me to...
section, select Spyware Quarantine.

3. A list of all items in your quarantine is displayed.
Select the item you would like to un-quarantine and when
the item appears in the right details window, select Un-
quarantine Threat. This restores the item to its original
state before it was quarantined.

4. To un-quarantine multiple items in the quarantine,
select each item and click Un-quarantine All Checked
Threats at the bottom of the screen.

5. After you un-quarantine an item you should restart your
computer to make sure the restored application runs.
