When files disappear, Magic Rescue saves the day

Thu, 14 Feb 2008 09:00:00 GMT
If you've ever had that sick realization that you made a mistake immediately after emptying your Trash or deleting a file with Shift-Del, then Magic Rescue may be the cure you're looking for. Magic Rescue searches block devices for particular file types, then restores them to a designated directory where you can sort through them.
