    Default Lost files problem

    I inadvertently deleted a folder.
    I downloaded recover 2514 and it recovered most of what I need including my current spreadsheet. But I cannot open this spreadsheet but can open others that were also deleted.

    What can I do?

    Search the internet for a program called "Encase" it's forensic data recovery software. I've seen it used to recover data from a destroyed HDD. It will pull stuff off a disc that has been formated several times. :eek:

    You might be able to find an 'evaluation' version floating around.
