Recovering your data

[dreambo...@gmail.com]

When you delete something, it doesn't actually erase the file. The OS
just transfers the file to the Recycle Bin. That is why you have to
empty the Recycle Bin. Not until the Recycle Bin is emptied is the file
erased. And actually that isn't really true either.
When a hard drive is formatted, a File Allocation Table (FAT) is
created. This table keeps track of where the files are on the hard
drive, what sector it starts. When a file is deleted, it is actually
the entry in the FAT that is erased, not the file itself.
There are utilities on the market like Stellar Phoenix FAT & NTFS which
can scan your hard drive and identify data that is on your computer and
give you the option of "undeleting" it.
Demo version can be downloaded from

the recovered data. If you are able to see the recovered data which you
have lost proceed to save the data by getting the full version

What about the deletion ? You were discussing about the deletion and
you flew to formating...! Is formating and deletion same thing ?

FAT Table is created when we format a hard drive ?? Is that so....
