I accidentally deleted over 100 files from a flash drive. The "Recuva" program shortly found them
although most of them, Recuva had red flagged as being unrecoverable, due to over-writing. THAT, I found strange.
Nonetheless, I "undeleted" each of those flagged files. after
which, almost all of them proved to be intact and fully readable by their host program. they were NOT unrecoverable
n addition to the many, just-deleted files, Recuva found MANY other files-deleted from over a year ago but I wasn't interested in attempting to
retrieve these, so didn't. Undeletion was a slow, painstaking process, as each file must be selected and "undeleted," individually save them to a
different drive as you go, to avoid overwriting the deleted-files-yet-to-be-retrieved
Recuva ultimately salvaged almost ALL my files and recreated their original folder-trees. It would be dandy if Recuva displayed the DELETION-DATES
of the deleted files. BUT it does NOT. ALSO, one of the files I'd retrieved to a desktop folder, defied almost all means to get
rid of it Win7 kept stating "This File Does Not Exist,EVERY time a cut or delete attempt was made on it via the GUI (graphical user interface).
Its icon defiantly remained on my "desktop" screen UNTIL I DID delete it via DOS command-prompt i have some problem with its interface.
