recuva works great and finds files and I can recover them. the problem is I want the files off my disk but can not locate them. I have run wipe on ccleaner and used Mil Shield to delete files yet recuva keeps finding them but only shows the location of C:? so I can not really go to that place and delete them. any suggestions anyone.

. . . only shows the location of C:? so I can not really go to that place and delete them. any suggestions anyone.

In Options\ Actions\ Recovering\ Secure overwriting, select Simple Overwrite (1 pass), ok.

Scan, right-click the results and select List view.

Click on the heading Path to sort files.

Hilite the C:\?\ items

Right-click and Secure Overwrite Highlighted

 

And here is a guide to using Recuva. http://www.piriform.com/docs/recuva
