Answer» A co-worker (wink. wink. ) has deleted a folder and deleted it from the recycle BIN. Can this be restored? I tried the system restore but it didn't work. I'm running WINDOWS XP.
Thanks ThreePutt1972The first most important thing to recover any deleted file is not to have any activity on the hard disk like copying/moving/deleting other files etc.
Then, you should set up any of the "data recovery" software and pray that your deleted file is not written upon by other files and is intact and you can recover it.

Hope this helps.To recover a file/folder you must UNDERSTAND what happens to the file/folder when it is deleted from the recycle bin. Be aware that it does not RETAIN its original folder/file name. Go here to read about it.
Download Restoration from here.
Good luck
Thanks, I DOWNLOADED and worked great. Lucky nothing was overwriten. Worth the investment.
