JUST A MOMENT!!! If I only delete a 100 kb file. And I remind you that it is impossible to recover everything. This program was very useful to me, and I hope it will serve you as much as it does me.
Once finished we open our favorite file explorer and go to the folder where we recover the files to see what we find. Moreover, during the operation it will show a list with the number of different files found. If that's correct, we press on the keyboard C and it will start saving what it finds. We can choose the folder to our liking, but if in the first step we create a directory and choose it with cd It will retrieve them there, because by default it does it in the folder where we were working with the terminal.
We just choose Free. In the next window it shows us a list of navigable folders where we can copy the files it recovers ( logically it cannot be on the same device). Whole: Recovers everything, whether they are deleted or not. To make it easy, if it is a disk or partition with Linux it is the first, if it is with another operating system or it is a pendrive, memory card or something else, it is the second (except for very strange exceptions).įree: Only recovers files deleted in free space. It is not very difficult, we only have two options. Then we must select > and gives us to choose the type of partition. > To select it (that is, press )Īs you will see in this case, it gives us to choose the partition. Since I couldn't find my pendrive, the only thing I have is my beloved hard drive. Knowing a little English we realize that it gives us a choice between the discs that we have inserted. Sudo photorec (we need superuser privileges) We choose the directory (if it does not exist we create it) to save the recovered files. Now we are going to focus on recovering data with Photorec. Sudo apt-get install testdisk (with this package install both programs).Īlthough both programs have a powerful and varied utility, I leave that for another post. And if it is in the partition of our system, it is best to immediately turn off our PC and do the steps from a LiveCD.Īnd one more thing, to recover a deleted file you have to meet certain conditions, and sometimes it is not so easy, and it is very unlikely (for technical reasons) to recover everything. If it is a partition on our PC, it is best to unmount it. Instead Photorec specializes in recovering deleted files (especially multimedia files) and does other things too.įirst of all an important point: If we know that we deleted or formatted something by mistake, for no reason let us write anything on it. Testdisk It is used to recover deleted files but especially lost partitions. Actually there are two: Testdisk y Photorec.
They had formatted the MicroSD on her cell phone and her photos died !!ĭoing a bit of research I found an excellent application for the console. The other days a friend came with a serious problem.
