Ok one of my guys from our support team just reamed me for considering a non-open source product. He passed me a free open source product that I just tried on my laptop. I was able to pull a file with low integrity from Apr 21 that was deleted. It appears that the utility will not pull files that are too far gone from the system's footprint.
Ok here is the link:(http://www.adrc.net/data_recovery_software/ADRC_Data_Recovery_Tools_v1.0.zip)
I did not use the instructions really. When I ran the program I selected the C: Drive and Clicked on Search. About a minute later it displayed all the deleted files that were recoverable. I selected on file and hit undelete button in the lower right corner, and selected the location to restore the file too. The only doubt I had was that I am sure that I deleted more that what it displayed for restoration but I assume that it would only restore what it could.
Give it a shot an let me know.
