4GB of data lost – URGENT HELP NEEDED!!!

by kevin_476 . Updated 19 years, 7 months ago

My brother recently deleted one of my folders (accidentally) containing about 4Gb worth of stuff. About 3 quarters of it is from sites that have closed down and some from a mail-list that doesn’t keep archives of files they send.

What I need is a program to recover the lost files WITH the directory/file-structure intact.

I found one program called ‘ADRC_Data_Recovery_Tools_v1.0’ which says it does just that, I put it on C:\ (the deleted stuff is on E:\) and it has found 10,000+ deleted files on C:\ but when I ask it to check E:\, it just finishes the search instantly and there are no results (no error message either).

Now, I also found a program called ‘Restoration V3.2.13’ which has found over 140,000(!) deleted files on E:\ but it can only recover individual files, not the folder/directory structure as well.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated, otherwise could someone point me to either a free program that can recover deleted files & folders with the directory/folder structure intact, or a forum that deals with deleted files and the like.

* I’ve just used ‘Turbo File Uneraser’ to do a simple scan only and it comes up with : “ERROR: Couldnot read MFT Record 912571”

** P.S. I’ve got like a day and a half to fix this so a prompt reply would be greatly appreciated.
** And if someone does know either how I can get the stuff back or another free program I could use could you either PM me or email me at ‘nameless_one2@hotmail.com’

Thanks in advance,
