Data loss can take place to everyone earlier or soon after, a single second after you press Enter you understand your mistake, you just removed a valuable file or folder from your Linux system consisting of no back up. And in shock you see the running month flash before your eyes as you understand in pain what you will have to do all over again. As you know that files and folders are never in fact deleted, at most overwritten by new data.
Therefore, you remount the drive read only as soon as possible. In Linux there are several methods to manually or automatically recovering the lost data. Almost all of the operating systems contain some or other undelete tools or methods. When it comes to the Linux operating system and its Ext3 file system, there is a tool called as Ext3grep that can help you in doing the same. Ext3grep is a Linux utility that can help you in recovering completely deleted files on an Ext3 File system based volume.
The best part of this tool is that you can use it tool in all possible situations of file loss where you have accidentally deleted the file by bypassing the trash bin or by emptying it. Though Ext3grep is a very important and useful application to retrieve your lost data but there are some major drawbacks with it. Using this tool, you can’t recover a file larger than 2 GB and also the tool is not useful in case if the data loss has been occurred due to some other reasons like operating system corruption, virus attack, file system corruption and logical volume deletion.
Therefore the data using Ext3grep can’t be recovered and it can put you in a big trouble. But there is no need to panic. There are many other methods to recover data in such situations. These methods are known as data recovery solutions. In this case of data loss, these solutions are available in the form of Linux recovery software.
The Linux recovery software are compatible to recover the data in all of the situations where other tools can’t do. You can perform recovery using these data recovery software very easily whether you have any prior technical knowledge or not. This software can is very proficient in Ext3 Recovery and Ext2 Recovery
