From all the posting....we can see that RMF can recover any types of files from any circumstances. And that is very good!! But what i am interested is that what RMF CANNOT do? That is something that i am really interested to know and I believe some of the ppl in this forum wants to know this too.

Thats a hard question! It does not do lots of things...
It wont recover data if it has been overwritten - but no data recover software will do that. Can you be more specific about what it may not do?

Hi
Ok. i will be more specific. Senario... I have a harddisk "A" waiting to be reclone with a image that i have store in a cd or another harddisk "B" . I am using norton ghost to reclone this image to harddisk "A". After reclonding, then i realise some of the files i actually need and forget to back up before reclone. can i use this software to recover my files that was actually recloned over by the image from the cd orharddisk "B"?

Ok, so you reloaded a Ghost image onto hard drive "A". Deleted files in any part of hard drive "A" that the image was written to have been overwritten and permanently destroyed.
For example, hard drive "A" is 40gb in total size. The image you just reloaded onto hard drive "A" contains 20gb of data. When you reload the image the fist 20gb of Hard Drive "A" is written over and any deleted files it contains are toast. However, the second 20gb of hard drive "A" has not yet been touched and you will still be able to recover files from it. All this depends of course on how you use Ghost. Ghost has the ability to take an entire sector copy of a hard drive (it is not the default setting so unless you tried to set it this way you probably have not done a sector copy). That means that when you restore an image of a 40gb drive (no matter how few files it contained) it will overwrite 40gb of data. Does this help?
