Answer:
FinalData peforms two types of scans to find deleted or damaged
data : A "Root Directory Scan" and a "Cluster
Scan"
The "Root Directory scan", looks
in the root directory for traces of "Deleted" and "Recently
Deleted" files and folders. Since files that are detected at
this stage
still maintain their information (i.e. file name, date, size, etc.),
they will be listed with their original name under "Deleted
Files" or "Deleted Folders".
Generally, a "Root Directory Scan" is all you need to
do for recovery after simple data deletion
Some of the simple data deletion cases are as follows:
- Files or
folders are deleted using the "Shift+Delete" shortcut
- Data is
deleted and emptied out of the Recycle Bin.
- The data
was recently deleted.
Note: The FinalData version 2.0 "File Delete Manager"
feature will keep a list of "Recently Deleted" files, which will
be displayed under a folder by the same name after the "Root
Directory scan".
