Undelete File Deletion Soon Or Else
Undelete file software are a popular category in recovering files. In fact, it's so common that your computer manufacturer has installed some fail safe undelete file functions for every user. I'll cover these now and afterwards talk about other undelete utilities.
The first undelete file program is most likely staring you right in the face. If you have not actually taken a close look at everything on your desktop, the Recycle Bin looks like a little trash can. Clicking this icon is your first line of defense when it comes to recovering an undelete file.
When you have located the undelete file, right click once on the icon or name for the file, and a prompt will appear that reads "Restore". Click it, and the file will be recovered to its original location on your computer. You have effectively utilized an undelete file utility to get your file.
The Second One
If you have been there to try that, move on to the file search function within the start menu. Click once on the start button which is located in the lower left hand corner of your desktop. Seek out the word "Search" on the list of options that appear. Click it, and then you are asked what you are looking for on your computer. Provide the file name and begin the recovery process.
Hopefully one of the two above-mentioned methods for deleted files will restore you data, or at least a recent copy that you can work with may exist. Again, if you are saying to yourself, "I've already done all of that", then let's go to the next step (Note that while these steps seem obvious to you, the phone calls keep rolling in from people who do not know these standard undelete file recovery methods.).
It's Time for an Undelete Utility
You are going to have to download an independent undelete software program...and several quality ones can be found under Software on this site. Make two or three disks of different undelete utility programs, because each one will produce a slightly different result. That is the nature of these types of software.
Undelete Services
If the undelete file software alternatives do not work to restore of your deleted file, your final alternative is to obtain the aid of a data recovery professional. This is going to be costly, but when you absolutely must have the file, then you need to give it a chance. Because you are only wanting an undelete file restored, maybe they will not charge a an upfront fee. This means, you can see the results without having to fork over a lot of money beforehand.
