dolbysnoopy Posted December 20, 2005 Report Posted December 20, 2005 In MSDOS age, there's an undelete.exe tool which can recover earlier deleted files with inputting first alphabet of filename. Anyone know of a handy tool for win xp can fix fat32 partition? I tried o&o unerase before but it rewrite the whole file in other place instead of just renaming first alphabet of filename (which doesn't need extra space for recovering).
ScubaSteve Posted December 20, 2005 Report Posted December 20, 2005 you might want to try http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/ and see if theres any tools on there that can do what you want.
splintax Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 i don't think there is any software that will do what you want (without requiring extra space to recover).
Firon Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 You can recover an entire partition with testdisk, but if it's file recovery you want, you have no choice but to save it onto another drive.
dolbysnoopy Posted December 21, 2005 Author Report Posted December 21, 2005 Not entire disk but a directory only but it's quite huge (~15GB) and there's not enough space on other drive. I haven't time to backup to DVDR before I do the wrong thing.
Firon Posted December 21, 2005 Report Posted December 21, 2005 Can't do it that way with NTFS anymore, methinks.
dolbysnoopy Posted December 22, 2005 Author Report Posted December 22, 2005 I mean recover files in FAT32 partition. I use NTFS for system files only so that if system files error I can just install the Windows again without touching my data files.
