    Recovering deleted files?


    I like a 25 year old game called Masters of Orion. It is okay to make fun of me; my sons certainly do.
    It crashes from time to time, but if you start it up again and tell it to continue it will resume the game a few turns back. I suffer from ADD and dyslexia and have a tendency to tell it to start a new game instead of continuing. I then lose my old game that I was well into.

    Years ago I had (I think) PCTools that had an undelete function. I could then just undelete my old game and continue it. I have recently tried a few undelete programs, but I get like 28,000 deleted files, but not my games. Is there a free software that would work like PCTools did? I told it to look for *.gam files and it would come up with a bunch; the most recent date/time would be the one I want.

    Thanks much.

    :)

    recover deleted data???

    That was the word on the street (so to speak) all the way back to the DOS days.
    Files are never really erased by the OS. Most every OS just marks the Directory entry for the file, that it was deleted. In the olden days, the filename "Mark.txt" would look like "?ark.txt".

    PCTools had an undelete command in it's file manager. All you had to do was provide the first letter for a deleted file and PCTools would recover the file for you.

    But if someone had deleted files and then did a defrag, well it was 99% certain that any deleted file was overwritten and gone forever.
    Many logs are written to during bootup and can overwrite deleted file space, so the less activity performed on a drive after file deletion, the better the chance of recovering those files.

    I too would like to know the name of that recovery program. I have one tucked away someplace but right now I don't even remember the name of it.*Confused Recovering deleted files? :confused:

    Cheers Mates!
