I had a free recovery progran, I used before but cannot find out where I got it.Is it okay if I use a recovery progran ? I had some malware and virus in the past that may come back if I use a recovery progran ?
How do you set the date for the recovery progran ? Only files I deleted today?I don't need thousands of files comming back. | | Distinguished Member with 8,354 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2005 Location: London England | | | | | Senior Member with 863 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Canada Experience: Understanding basic PC hardware | | Quote:

D/load file recovery program to Mem stick etc.

You say you want to go back One day.
How far in the past were there Malware,Virus on your system?
"And how do I set it so only files in the past day I deleted"
The recovery program will show the date any file was deleted. | | Senior Member with 863 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Location: Canada Experience: Understanding basic PC hardware | | Quote:

Also saying you cannot set the program to only bring back files 5 or 10 days ago. | | Distinguished Member with 3,182 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Experience: Intermediate |

#11 | Hi 1002richards.
Recently used Undelete-plus and it does restore most files, including video,but only if they haven't been overwritten.
But the longer you leave the restore, it becomes more unlikely that a restore can take place.
As for spelling I use Tiny spell and it works a treet.. treart, Treat. http://tinyspell.m6.net/ | | Distinguished Member with 3,182 posts. | | Join Date: Jan 2006 Experience: Intermediate |

#13 | I ran that program at undelete plus and the files are bad.Only the files a day old work. http://www.undelete-plus.com
Also I'm having problems with the recycle bin that delete the stuff I put in there .Is it because of a file size problem or in the settings it deletes the stuff after the computer turns off?
It seems I put stuff in the recycle bin and it will stay there  to I put other stuff in the recycle bin and it will delete the old stuff.
-- setting for drive 24%
size of drive 1.99 GB
