Thank you for the Codswallop classification in the decade-and-half old thread ..."German phrase, translation, please?" thread.cfm?threadid=10008&messages=24 That thread is a classic example of the Spew/Laf misinformation consortium of the Mud 90's. You do not mention your device, nor OS. Consider, a boot from a Linux to view and recover. For old HD's (like stuff found in trash-bins) you can remove, apply external power, and access via a USB port on a lap-top...and Linux. Lots of information is available if you look for "forensic recovery". THINK Hilary.
