undelete

[Guest]

Anyone can tell me how to undelete software and files
which I removed??

 

[Guest]

try system restore

There is no such feature unless you have quarantined a threat and can then
un-quarantine it.

System restore will restore executable code, but no user data files.

It'd be bettter to say exactly what is missing and how it happened.

The record as posted in these groups for recovery of deleted items is very
poor.

Appreciate the response. But if the FBI can find deleted
files on peoples computers, I should also be able to
undelete. There must be a way Huh?

There is. You can download demos of commercial undelete software. These
demos are supposed to give an accurate prediction about whether specific
files can be recovered or not.

If your files went into the quarantine folder, they are simply renamed, and
relocated. I've posted advice before that there are utilities available
which should be able to re-name MP3 files, for example, based on the
content.

You can also send the physical drive out for data recovery. I've a neighbor
whose drive suffered an apparent electronics failure. He was able to
recover the data on the drive, but only after paying a hefty fee to the
drive recovery folks--he hasn't been willing to tell me but the low end of
the estimate was $400.
