[Recently deleted .txt file, can only find $I of it]

Thanks, unfortunately the last version of the folder was 6 days ago, I guess I don't have it set to save diff versions very frequently or something.

As for Recuva in Advanced mode it only still found the $I.

 

I'll just have what to rewrite what I can remember I guess. Also need to be more wary when working on the PC while sleepy, so I don't do stupid mistakes like this again.

(and rename New Text Document files immediately to something relevant, so I don't think it was some temporary text file I could delete ).

Thanks all once more.

Thanks, I've done the scan in Wizard mode. Will try Advanced to see if anything else comes up, but not very hopeful.

[Recently deleted .txt file, can only find $I of it]

I've noticed I accidentaly deleted an important .txt file from emptying the recycle bin yesterday right before shutting off my PC.

 

So the first thing I done today was to download Recuva (portable version) and did a Deep Scan in Recycle Bin.

 

I found a lot of $I 544 bytes files from other files I had deleted before and I take it those are index entries and not the $R data I want.

The problem is that it only has found one or two $R files that contain readable data and they are files deleted some hours before the important .txt file I'm looking for.

 

There is, however, an $I txt file in the results and it is the one with the most recent date. If only I could find its $R... would scanning in more locations help or is it gone forever?

 

I don't understand why it managed to find smaller files deleted hours before the .txt one?

 

Thanks
