File Recovery with Restoring Folder Structure

I recently accidentally deleted a directory containing several gigabytes worth of folders and files using Shift+Delete on one of my rigs... Now, I'm familiar with several different software tools that can recover deleted files, (I've used Recuva most frequently), however none of them are capable of restoring files and folders with their original directory structure intact.

Is this even possible to recover these files with the directory structure intact? I'm looking for some suggestions on what (free) software that you'd recommend that would be capable of doing this.

Cheers and thanks in advance!
 
Just realized I posted this in offtopic... If a mod could move it to software that'd be awesome.

*Bump*
 
UnDeletePlus usually works really well so long as the files haven't been overwritten...a quick google search will provide a download location
 
I installed, started to do a file recovery and my netbook crashed... Now this time around it's telling me I need to register, haha. Does esupport limit you to one recovery attempt before you're required to purchase the full version license? Checking their website now to see if I can register for free // any other details.

EDIT: Now their register function doesn't seem to be working... I swear it was working last night when I tried it before it crashed... Then this evening I try it again and it's telling me I need to register with them, which isn't free from the looks of the site. Feeling a bit like a dunce here, haha.

Any other recommendations anybody has for alternative software are welcome while I sort this out.

Cheers!
