  1. I understood that there is no other way to handle such cases. And I learned, that although a file is reported as 'unrecoverable', that nevertheless it is possible to try to recover it (and then check the content for rubbish). Thanks for that information.
  2. Please look at the screenshot: Recuva reports, that a file is 'unrecoverable', because it is overwritten by another file. But this is not true. What I did: - I saved a file as e:\Inst\rcsetup150.exe - then I moved this file to e:\Inst\_SystemTools\Recuva\rcsetup150.exe - then I deleted this file to the recycle bin - then I deleted this file within the recycle bin - immediately after this I started Recuva So Recuva reports a wrong state ('unrecoverable'), although the file should be recoverable. The reason is, that Recuva does not check, that a file has been moved, before it was deleted. But this can happen often. This seems to me a bad error, because a file is reported to be lost, although it is recoverable. Only if the user: - remembers, that he had moved the deleted file (this could be long ago) and - realizes, that the mentioned file in column 'Comment' was the source of the move and - searches this file (e:\Inst\rcsetup150.exe) in the list then he will see, that this file is reported to be recoverable. But this disadvantages should not be necessary.
