3.3. Recovering Deleted Data (Commercial Version
Only)
This feature is available only in the commercial version of Active@ UNERASER for DOS.
Use the scan or search procedures above to identify deleted files
and folders and to inspect the contents to see if the data is worth
recovering. Use the following steps to recover deleted files and
folders:
- Position the cursor on an identified, deleted file. Deleted
files and folders are marked with a box icon to the left of the file
name.
- Press [Ctrl]+[U] to execute the unerase command.
If data is not
recoverable, an error message will be displayed.
If data is
recoverable, a Select Path dialog box is displayed, similar to the
figure below:
Figure 3-7 Select Path for Recovery
(!) Note: Do not save
recovered files to the same drive and path location where the deleted
files were found.
- A list of identified drives is displayed in a pane labeled
Drives:.
When the cursor rests on one of these drive names, a list of
folders on that drive is displayed in the Folders: pane.
The cursor will be in the
Drives: pane. Use the arrow keys to select a drive other than the drive
containing the deleted files you wish to recover.
- Use the Tab key to move the cursor over to the Folders: pane.
- Use the arrow keys to select a folder other than the folder in
which deleted files were identified.
- The Result: field displays the full path information where the
recovered files will be written.
(!) Note: The number of
drives and drive names in this dialog box may not match with what was
displayed in the previous window. This happens because the previous
window displayed read-only information. This new window displays
write-operation output location data and reads only the FAT drive
data.
- Use the [Esc] key at any time to cancel the operation. Use
[Ctrl]+[Tab]
to move the cursor back to the previous pane.
- Use [Tab] to highlight the File name: field. Change the name
of the file to its original name or give it a new name.
- Finish defining the output name and location and press [Enter]
to start the recovery process. The Recovery Progress screen appears.
Figure 3-8 Copying file. Please wait. . .
You can stop the recovery process at any time by pressing [Esc].
If you recover a folder, all recoverable files and sub-folders
located in the deleted folder will be recovered and saved to the new
location recursively.
- When the process is complete, the recovered file or folder will
appear in the selected location.
