    I don't know what the program would be called, but I deleted a file about a month ago which had a very important paper in it that I now need. Is there anyway I can go back and get that file with a program :confused:

    I am using Vista by the way.

    Thanks

    a month ago might not be recoverable. Try recuva.com anyway

    You won`t recover it, way too long. Files have probably been written on that hdd section by then.
    TuneUp Utilities has an Undelete section also, and Norton ...
    Lol,glad you found it :)
