When you open a dos-window in windows 95 and deletete a file using the Dos
DEL command, Windows 95 doesn't allow you to recover the deleted file.
Does anyone know of any utility that can undelete that file?

Please, reply directly, if possible.

Thanks

========================
It is true that Windows95 does not send deletions to the Recycle Bin,
but there are other programs that incororate this feature.  Norton
Utilities is one such program.  Alternatively, you can use the old
Undelete command from DOS 5 through 6xx.  It's the old undelete where
you have to do the undelete before you write again to the disk.  What
you have to do is start Windows95 in DOS mode, then use the LOCK
command on the drive on which the undeletion is required. You'll get
an intimidating message about impending doom and loss of your first
born, but go ahead anyhow.  Do the undelete, then use the UNLOCK
command. 

One thing further.  If the delete from, say DOS 6.0, gives you an
"Incorrect DOS version" error message, use SETVER to make it
compatible.  

        C:\> SETVER UNDELETE.EXE 6.0

Standart Microsoft program msundel.exe /or ~~/ (microsoft undelete for
windows) including in dos instalution. His can recovery file in windows
sesion.

Or you can "reboot in ms-dos sesion" and using "undelete.exe" command.

Or you can "run ms-dos sesion" and using "/lock" and "undelete"

Sory, for my bad English. :)
