[comp.sys.atari.st.tech] Deleted files

pwp@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu (Paul Purdom) (09/15/90)

Is there a good program for restoring deleted files from a hard disk (with
TOS1.4)? I have tried some version of Disk Doctor, but although it found the
missing files, it did not appear to restore them.

Thes files are not on the top level.

As long as you don't write to the drive after you've deleted the 
file, you should be able to recover it, also as long as it was only 
one file.  Multiple files are more difficult, if possible.  With Disk 
Doctor, you can choose the directory you want to recover the file 
from, as well as the root directory.

Have you ever tried running Norton Utilities under PC-Ditto ??
B****y slow, but it works a treat !
