Moderators mta Posted April 21, 2014 Moderators Share Posted April 21, 2014 get the latest version from here; http://www.piriform.com/recuva/download what is your Windows version? what happened to the drive/files for you to use Recuva? what sort of files are they? the more information given, the better the chance people can help you. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last.

Moderators Augeas Posted April 22, 2014 Moderators Share Posted April 22, 2014 If you were editing, and saved a file with old data then most likely the new data is lost forever. The old data would have been written on top of the new data, and the new data is unrecoverable. If you were copying the old file on top of the new file then your chances of recovery are almost as bad. The file entry in the Master File Table would have been overwritten so you won't be able to use Recuva normal scan. You might find the new file with a deep scan, it's difficult to say whether the data has survived the copy process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
