I share a similar problem to others in that I successfully recover green-flagged files, previously deleted from the recycle bin in Win7, but then am unable to read them. The message is that the graphic files (originally JPGs and recovered as such) are WMF files with an incorrect extension. I then accept the option to rename - they become WMF files - but told that the results are invalid metafiles! I have had similarly unsuccessful results with attempting to recover Word files - apparent successful recovery but unable to open. What am I missing here?
