Fat Undelete

PhuckFonix · 06-12-2004, 06:37 PM

I'm looking for a program that can undelete files from a fat32 partition. I've tried fatback but it only recovers part of the file name. Can someone point me to another program that is able to undelete files with entire file names?

I have never actually tried to do this under linux but there is a very good program that will work under windows:

Not really a security question. Moving to general

I would need to install XP on hdb's free space without deleting the MBR of the hds's. Maybe someone can take a look at the code for fatback 1.3 ? It can only recover 26 characters of the filename. I was looking at it, I've been doing some C++ for a year or two and I was understanding it. Now if someone with more experience could understand it in more of it's entirety and maybe figure something out. I'll keep looking at the code myself. I haven't been able to reach the author, either.
