Welcome
Emergency Undelete Quick Tour

Important:  Do not rely on Emergency Undelete as your primary data recovery tool.  It will not recover files over a network and does not include the Recovery Bin that is an integral part of our full-featured Undelete.  Emergency Undelete enables you to undelete files directly from disk.  However, deleted files resident on hard drives are in constant danger of being completely or partially overwritten from the moment they are deleted.  Your file may already be overwritten.

For a complete and guaranteed data protection solution we strongly suggest you purchase our full-featured Undelete® for Windows NT, as it features a powerful Recovery Bin that catches and protects from overwrite all your deleted files, even those deleted across the network from shared drives, and safely holds them.  Undelete for Windows NT is available from your reseller.  Our free trialware version is available by clicking here:

Follow these steps to recover files with Emergency Undelete:

1.	Enter the name of the file you want to undelete in the Named: field of the Emergency Undelete display.  You can use wildcard characters (such as *.doc or *.*) if you don't recall the name of the file.

2.	Enter the letter of the drive you want to search in the Look in: field of the Undelete display.  You can optionally enter a directory folder name (such as D:\My Documents).  Use the Browse button to see the drives and folders on your computer.

3.	Click Find Deleted Files.  This starts the search for deleted files.

4.	Once the search is complete, highlight the name of the file (or files) you want to undelete.

5.	Click Undelete File(s).  This causes a new dialog box to be displayed.

6.	Enter the drive letter and directory folder name of the location where you want the undeleted file to be written in the Undelete file(s) to path: field.  If you have more than one disk partition, be sure to specify a partition other than the one where the file was originally located.  This prevents the new, recovered file from overwriting portions of the old, deleted file.

7.	Click OK.  The file(s) you have selected will be recovered if possible, and written to the location you have specified.
