A few days ago i deleted pictures and documents from my main computer, i have just realised they are needed urgently by my partner for a buisness venture. Is there any way for me to get theese files back? I have attepted to use system restore but that did not bring back the files. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated?

Thanks In Advance

I used Fast File Undelete a couple of years ago and it found LOADS of files.

Aslong as your free harddrive space isn't over-written by other files/programs you add after deletion you can get a lot back.

(and that was the C drive)

These utils always do find loads of files.

Finding a file doesn't necessarily mean it can be restored, it just means that it's found the file header. Whether the rest of the file is still there and hasn't been over-written is another matter. It's pot luck.

If the drive has been de-fragged at all, you can pretty much forget it.

Well it found loads I could access (certainly as far as text files).

De-frag? Never!
