Undelete deleted files from the bin in XP

S

Steen Schütt

Is it possible to undelete a file that is deleted from the waste basket in
XP?

Maybe.

This may be a moot point now, but in the future when you delete something or
empty your Recycle Bin and want to recover something from it... Stop using
the computer now. Your recovery chances are better if the file has not been
overwritten.

This is free.

Description
[[Restore files which are deleted from the recycle bin or deleted while
holding down the Shift key by mistake. Conversely, this program has another
function that makes it almost impossible to restore all deleted files. You
can use it after deletion of confidential documents, embarrassing files and
so on.]]

You might want to download this with a friend's machine and save it to a
floppy. Restoration will run fine from a floppy, that's how I run it.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
