I've got 8 bajillion pictures coming from the temp folder that are just old crap from browsing the internet, is there any way I can just filter those out? I've only deleted a couple pictures though the recycle bin recently, so i was hoping to just see those if at all possible, as it feels like i could easily miss something in all these files i don't even know where came from.

is there some option for this?

Thanks in advance.

Start Recuva's Wizard, select "In the Recycle Bin" when asked for files location...

You can easily filter Recuva's search results by entering something in the File/Pathname box, before or after you've done a scan. Items deleted from the recycler may be renamed by Windows to Dcxx in XP and $I or $R in Vista (as far as my old memory tells me).

Thanks, both of you. The wizard thing worked. I don't know why, but last time i went through the wizard I thought it meant it was going to look in the recycle bin at undeleted files, and I was thinking, "Couldn't i just look there myself?" and didn't use it.
