Restoring FILE0000.CHK files?

[shabby]

Does anyone know if its possible to restore file0000.chk files?
I lost a bunch of files(10 gigs worth) and would like to recover them. They seem to be intact because i can actually open them and all the data is there.
Any programs out there that can recover them?

Nope.

If you want 'em, you're gonna have to manually re-label them.

"Recover *.*" right?

If they were generated from a CHKDSK, then they are either file fragments, or are detached from the directory. Then you have to walk through the file with a binary editor and find the next link and concatenate them.

Not pretty. Not fun. A challenge to be sure.

Good Luck

Gawd that brings back memories. What a wonderful little command Microsoft came up with.
