SUMMARY
This article describes how to locate a deleted file in the Recycle Bin on a computer that has the Winternals Administrator's Pak installed.



MORE INFORMATION
When a file is moved to the Recycle Bin, the file name is changed. However, the file name extension is always preserved. For example, if a file that is named &quot;Accounting.doc&quot; is deleted, it may be renamed in the Recycle Bin as &quot;Df1.doc.&quot;

We recommend that you search the computer's hard disk for the extension of the file that you are trying to recover. Additionally, you can verify the expected file size against the size of any files that are returned by the search process.
