Just registered to say that this program worked like a charm! Thank you! I've accidentally deleted something about 30GB of data during improper backing up. Thanks extundelete, 13000 files were recovered! And whole directories structure persisted! Wondering, does extundelete's author accepts donations now? :)

Still works great

Thanks a lot for extundelete! I accidentally deleted a directory on an ext4 formatted EBS volume that had around 2 weeks of my work in it. Thanks to extundelete I was able to recover the deleted files back. If you guys had a donation option, I would happily donate to express my gratitude for what you did for me! Keep up the great work!

What an excellent little tool! While PhotoRec will only give you cryptic file names you have to rename later (provided you can even *remember* them still), this one will keep the ORIGINAL file names! extundelete was a true life-saver when I intended to rm -rf the temporary (!) directory, but accidentally specified the target directory instead!! Keep up the great work. This should be part of the base system, like e2fsck and others.

Thank you so much!!! I am using Ubuntu 12.04 and I have installed extundelete version 0.2.4 libext2fs version 1.42, and it worked perfectly for me. I was having issue: "extundelete: No such file or directory while creating directory" while I was trying to use "-o" output directory option, I guess some permission problem while running from Ubuntu Live CD. When I ran without that option it worked perfectly! Thank you!!!
