Be sure you don't write any more to the disk or you are doomed completely.

Use it with extreme caution. With that said, it is a quick way to delete files you are sure of. Modern Linux and Unix Desktop Environments do provide with a solution of "Trash Can" , so the user easily can recover accidentally deleted files.
Don't use "rm" if you wish to restore the files in future. Use "rm-trash" utility instead : github. Add a comment. Active Oldest Votes. The following are generic steps to recover text files.

What I like about it is that it doesn't rely on the filesystem's journal like extundelete , but it actually scans the raw bytes of the entire drive instead.
If this command doesn't find your file, nothing will. Quinma, this method can work remotely with only slight modifications Instead of running init 1 , manually kill every system daemons except sshd. I also think at this point you should be remounting all filesystems RO and saving to tmpfs assuming your temp files will fit in ram to avoid overwriting the files with the temp data.
You will of course have to copy it elsewhere later, either to a remote server or back to local filesystems after remounting them RW. Qback, I really don't know. As stated, I just followed the step-by-step. But the init 1 is meant for administrative tasks, and maybe kill process not related to that runlevel scenario. That may help preventing harddisk from being used, overwriting the file you're trying to recover. Show 4 more comments.
If it's very-very important, take the disk from the computer and hire a company to do it for you. If it is only very important, mount the disk read-only, copy the whole partition to a file using dd and try to find the file within it using grep , or an editor.

The first thing to do is to try some common tools before burning a lot of cash for an uncertain result. BTW, grep won't really help, photorec or ext3grep will. Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search. I have unfortunately deleted some important files and folders using 'rm -R ' command in Linux server. I use an ide to code and accidently I used rm -rf from terminal to remove complete folder.
Thanks to ide I recoved it back by reverting the change from ide's local history. Short answer: You can't. Some Unix and Linux systems try to limit its destructive ability by aliasing it to rm -i by default, but not all do. Long answer: Depending on your filesystem, disk activity, and how long ago the deletion occured, you may be able to recover some or all of what you deleted. In the future, use rm with caution. Either create a del alias that provides interactivity, or use a file manager.
Not possible with standard unix commands. You might have luck with a file recovery utility. Also, be aware, using rm changes the table of contents to mark those blocks as available to be overwritten, so simply using your computer right now risks those blocks being overwritten permanently. If it's critical data, you should turn off the computer before the file sectors gets overwritten. I'm having some trouble with it.
I'm getting an error with the blocksize. The part of the script that does the tar looks like this: tar cvfX Restoring TAR'd file to different location. Is it possible to restore a TAR'ed file off of a tape to a location other than the original location?
If so, how? The MAN pages give examples of how to restore only to the originating location. The version of UNIX is Restoring a single file??? Can anyone please help? Managed to do a ufsdump of files to tape. Having trouble using ufsrestore to pull a single file back by filename?? I have dumped a single file to tape also because looking through the other threads, I noticed that you have to tell it to skip files before you get to Restoring a file from Tape.
