Solve : Recovering files in DOS??

Answer»

How can I recover a deleted file in DOS?
As in:
I deleted a file from the recycle bin.
Now how do I get it BACK?
(Also as in I don't have System Restore, or drive TEMPORARY archive)
I'm presuming you mean the Command PROMPT in XP.

Why do you need to use the Command Prompt, why not use one of the many free recovery progs around - such as Restoration :-?

But first you have to know how deleted files are treated - as in renamed - please read this and this

Meantime do as little as possible with the hdd as the deleted file(s) may be overwritten.

Good luckOk, I downloaded "Undelete" DOS and Windows version.
(I have Windows 98)
Did someone REPLY to this thread? I just got an email saying someone did...If you delete it from the Recycle Bin it is gone without DATA recovery software.
