Need fast Redirecting PLS!

[nameless_one]

I know this isn't the right place to post this but you guys are the only IT troubleshooters I know.

My brother recently deleted one of my folders (accidentally) containing about 4Gb worth of stuff. About 3 quarters of it is from sites that have closed down and some from a mail-list that doesn't keep archives of files they send.

What I need is a program to recover the lost files WITH the directory/file-structure intact.

I found one program called 'ADRC_Data_Recovery_Tools_v1.0' which says it does just that, I put it on C:\ (the deleted stuff is on E:\) and it has found 10,000+ deleted files on C:\ but when I ask it to check E:\, it just finishes the search instantly and there are no results (no error message either).

Now, I also found a program called 'Restoration V3.2.13' which has found over 140,000(!) deleted files on E:\ but it can only recover individual files, not the folder/directory structure as well.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated, otherwise could someone point me to either a free program that can recover deleted files & folders with the directory/folder structure intact, or a forum like this one that deals with deleted files and the like.

Thanks in advance,

Not sure if this will help if you haven't found anything yet,but I'll put these on:

I found the above,which in the Undeleting section lead me to:

To which I found this:

So,read it all through,and see what you think.
If the files were overwritten by now,I don't think it will work,but you can give it a shot.
