Search unused disk space for text string...


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi,

 

I have lost a text file on a server disk. I know it is somewhere on the

unused space surface, but no file-based recovery utility has been able

to locate the filename.

 

Hence I need a utility which can read trough unused sectors or clusters

and display its contents when a specific text string is found.

 

Thanks for tips on which win32 based cluster/sector based disk search

utilities. Preferably freeware or trialware ;-)

 

Thanks for comments and tips
