Re: Recovering deleted files on JFS drive

Yesterday, I accidentally deleted a directory with about ten files. I noticed this immediately and made sure that nothing got written to the volume afterwards. I tried to recover the files with both June and DFSee
but apparently they are unable to find the files.

I used both the normal and the quick method in DFSee. And I let both tools recover files with the approximate size of the ones I had deleted.
No luck.

Is there anything I can do? Note that I deleted the *directory* that contained the files, not the files themselves.

This seems weird. I thought a directory had to be empty before you could delete it. Am I missing something?
