Hi,

A few quick questions...

How were these file lost?

What type of media are you searching?

What type of search did you run to try and find them?

Hello again,
The files was deleted by using CTRL + Del (usuall deleting) buttons.
I searched for .php (web application ext.) and jpg\gif\png (photos ext.).

Thanks for your support!

oh.. and i found the files and even success to save them in other computer hard disk using my home network.
the problem is when i try open the files, i can't see what i should to see:
photos can't be opened, .php files showing stange letters.
I attached to this post 2 files for example: .txt file and .gif file.

It looks like the files have already been overwritten with other data. I am not sure what type of search you have tried, but please run a "Complete File Search" for specific file types. Pay particluar attention to any files in the results window that start with "Recovered...".

Thank you, I will try it!

but.. this is possible to recover overwritten files?

Once a deleted file has been overwritten with other data it is no longer possible to recover the deleted file.
