Can you help me choose an utility to restore erased data file? I need the best one, as the files are valuable for me. Thay were on NTFS disk, under windows XP
Maybe, Active@ Undelete will be of use also. It never failed me. It's last version also can boot from its disk even if OS is down and recover files http://www.active-undelete.com/winpe_screens.htm
oh and by the way (a bit late to mention it now) don't write to the disk until you have recovered you're file(s). every write reduces your already low enough chances of recovery.
Yeah because when you delete your files they are not actually deleted you only delete information about them. They are still present on the disk until other data overwrites them.
