This works if you don't overwrite the location on the harddrive. Meaning, don't use the computer at all until you run this program and attempt to recover your files.

I can't find a single app that can recover them.

UPDATE: I found the files on other media...I backed them up three times it appears. I have enjoyed the insults though.



The one thing you can be 100% certain to count on from ATOT! ;)

If something happens again and you lose important files, you can just download new porn rather the trying to recover the lost porn.
