I have an external hard drive that I was using to copy music, and images, from one PC to another. I deleted all the files before confirming the restore, and the images didn't copy. What's the easiest way to get it all back?

I know they say it is easy to restore the last deleted stuff... just never done it... and I know a lot of you are smarter than me.  [thumbsup]

i use ontrack easy recovery.

one thing you may need to do, though, is remove the drive from the usb enclosure. most "deep" recovery apps (read: to good ones), like to talk directly to the hardware.
