Recover is a utility which automates some steps as described in the Ext2fs-Undeletion howto in order to recover a lost file.

Recover (ie. console version) is no longer under active development since bug reports have become rare (thus stable), newer and better FS's are coming up and I don't really know how recover could be improved. (suggestions are still welcome!)

If you want to undelete files on a non-ext2 linux partition, you should try it the UNIX-way!

Recover automates some steps as described in the ext2-undeletion howto. This means it seeks all the deleted inodes on your hard drive with debugfs. When all the inodes are indexed, recover asks you some questions about the deleted file. These questions are:

  • Hard disk device name
  • Year of deletion
  • Month of deletion
  • Weekday of deletion
  • First/Last possible day of month
  • Min/Max possible file size
  • Min/Max possible deletion hour
  • Min/Max possible deletion minute
  • User ID of the deleted file
  • A text string the file included (can be ignored)

    If recover found any fitting inodes, he asks to give a directory name and dumps the inodes into the directory. Finally he asks you if you want to filter the inodes again (in case you typed some wrong answers).

    We hope you will never need recover, but in case, it's better to install this program anyway. Once a file is deleted, everytime something is written to disk, there's a change it will overwrite the old deleted file. You will never be able to restore it.
