I need to restore files that have been deleted using the recycle bin on a windows 2000 pro machine. I have tested every software I could find and none could pass this simple test.
1. create a file on drive D
2. reboot machine
3. verify file still exists then delete file and remove from recycle bin
4. install undelete utility after the file was deleted!
5. find file with undelete utility on drive D and restore.
It appears most of these utilities are great at retreving files that have been lost by formating or fdisking but not through deleting with the recycle bin. I beleive windows 2000's ntfs must do something wierd once the file is removed. Does anyone know of software that will pass this test or the reason why all have failed?
Thanks
