Recover deleted files with Foremost on Linux
Did you ever deleted some important files and panicked on how to recover it? On Linux there is Foremost that can come to the rescue.
Not many users know that deleting a file from a file manager or with ‘rm’ from a terminal is not enough to really remove it from your hard disk; these methods simply remove the “link” that map the hard drive area that is containing the file to the file system record for the file in question, but that hard drive area will continue to contain the file data until the file system decides to reuse the area for a new file.
Foremost can analyze a specific directory or the entire hard drive looking for any deleted files to recover; it also allow to select the file type to search.
