RE: [OT] Undeleting files - IMPORTANT

["Jonathan @ Home" <jonathan@xxxxxxx>]

As suggested by someone else, don't do anything with either medium until
the
files are recovered as systems will see a space occupied by a deleted file
as free space and start to use it.

Cheers

Subject: [ukha_d] [OT] Undeleting files - IMPORTANT

Hi everyone - I could use a favour,

my brother took some snaps of his new baby daughter during the run up to
Christmas and it seems that during the download to his machine he
"lost"
them.  The camera was a Nikon Coolpix and it auto-deleted them from the CF
card.  Tragically the baby died the day after Boxing Day and the pictures
have now taken on a massive importance.  I haven't had chance to see the
machine "personally" but want to be sure that I do the best job I
can to get
them off (If they still exist) and I need to make sure I don't damage my
chances by doing something stupid.

I have undeleted files successfully in the past, but never ones with such
significance - any suggestions about what I should use.  I know enough not
to install anything onto the drive where the photos (hopefully) reside.

Any pointers would be gratefully received.

Tim.
