Recover Deleted Files Using the Free Open Source Tool PhotoRec

It's hard to find in the article anything more than what already is on Photorec homesite since a number of years, the "Photorec step by step" page:

http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec_Step_By_Step

is actually more comprehensive.

Yeah, you're right. Their guide even has screenshots for each step, which I hadn't noticed before. Anyway, the purpose of the article was to increase awareness of those amazing tools. I find it surprising that many people are not aware they can recover their data without paying for a commercial application.

Yes, have used both - TestDisk and PhotoRec (CentOS) extensively and both work like a charm.
