Can anyone point me at a utility to undelete an Amigados file? Are there
reliable PD programs that can do this, i.e. if I delete a file, and don't
write anything else on that disk, can the file be undeleted? Thnx

Well, one I know works is Quarterback Tools. Commercial disk utility. Will
fix most common hardware disk errors (bad bitmap, key disk viol, etc) as
well as undelete files. Costs @ $55.00 or so. Has saved my butt several
times that amount in frustration. (just *today* I repaired a bad bitmap on
my main HD partition with it, for example)
Note that you'll have the best shot at undeleting a file if you've NOT
WRITTEN ANYTHING TO THE DRIVE SINCE YOU DELETED IT. So, if you're still
using the disk that you want to undelete on, DONT WRITE TO IT.
Contrary to what some say, if you have written to the disk, you still may
get the file back. It just gets less likely the more you write to the
disk…. hope this helps.
