Hello,
I used Recuva for the first time today. The word file was deleted this morning by someone else, but I knew the name and date modified. I have found the file and it says it's in excellent condition. It was originally saved to the desktop by the other person, so I thought me trying to put it on the desktop again (in another folder) was the problem. So, I tried recovering it to a flash drive, another folder, etc. Each time it recovers it as a "shortcut" (even though the file in Recuva seems to be an actual file ---it's more than 1KB in size).
When I click on the shortcut, the document will not open because the "file is missing". I have tried opening the file in word, notepad, etc and nothing works.
Any suggestions?
Thank you
