Does anybody know how to undelete a file and do you have
to know the entire file name?

Hi Villas,

If you haven't emptied your recycle bin you can open it, sort it any way you
like, and hunt around until you find the file you're after. Then,
right-click and choose Restore.
 
Well, if you don't know the file name, how do you expect to find it to get
it back? If your child wandered away and you didn't know his name, could you
call for him?
 
But he apparently doesn't know what he wants to undelete! (-:
 
To make matters worse some undelete programs change the file name so even if
you knew the name it might be quite difficult to locate with the recovery
software.
