I think I’ve tried this application before but I can’t remember whether it could successfully retrieve the files I wanted or not..

Michael,
It’s a great freeware utility that works, but in some cases such as deep deletes like re-writes it will not. Most users do not do re-writes when it comes to deleting files.
