sometimes if you happen to be a little head in the air and delete files on your Windows PC, there is a plethora of apps to recovery files (even those deleted from the Recycle Bin).

If you're running linux, how?

Aaaaah, fear no more because it is also possible to simply retrieve the files through a command line tool called Foremost, which was originally developed for the special investigation service of the U.S. Air Force ...

Recovering a deleted file from a simple concept ... when you delete a file, only the pointer to it is broken but it is not immediately re-écrabouillé with other data. The file is still physically present on the hard disk. Obviously, the longer you wait before you recover a file, it most likely to disappear forever.

I will speak with Ubuntu is because I use distrib. I do not know how it goes for other distrib but in principle, it remains the same. To install Foremost, you must activate the Universe repository and enter the following command line (or via Synaptic):

sudo apt-get install foremost

Then you must know the partition where you want to recovery files. (eg /dev/sda1)

If you want to see the files it is possible to recover your partition, enter the command line:

sudo foremost -w -i /dev/sda1 -o /recovery/foremost

For example, to retrieve deleted jpg images, you must type:

sudo foremost -t jpeg -i /dev/sda1

Foremost will then create a directory named "output" in which he put all the files recovered. Obviously, if the images have begun to be crushed, you'll get half of the images but it is already ...

There are obviously lots of other options but the recovery ennoncer here would be too long (and I do not master all) but I recommend you read the man page Foremost here.
