how to restore a file deleted just 5 min ago...
i was tweaking with a mkv file for 2 hours and accidentally deleted it 5 min ago...nothing has been changed...no log out...no update...nothing so far.
is there any way i can get that file? please help me asap.. |
Unfortunately file once deleted is deleted. :( No way you can recover them using Unix. Maybe some third party tools .. But am not aware of any...

1. stop using that partition
2. try photorec and/or testdisk |
What file system are you using? Use the command 'mount' to find out. I use reiser fs and when I had this problem I used 'reiserfsck --rebuild-tree' Read the man pages but be careful, it has an element of danger (apparently).

well this time you might be out of luck .
As chrism01 pointed out you you STOP right then and there and DO NOT use that partition or download anything -- you STOP if / or /home do not even log out or turn off the machine then use photorec now for "system rescue cd " burn a copy and for next time http://www.sysresccd.org/SystemRescueCd_Homepage you do need to reboot and keep a copy of extundelete installed http://extundelete.sourceforge.net/ however it can ONLY be used on an UNMOUNTED partition |
