Recovery of remote linux ext4 files
Restoring deleted files on Linux with the ext4 file system can be quite a difficult task, but in most cases it is possible to return part or all of the lost data. Here are some methods that can help:
1. Using the TestDisk program: TestDisk is a free tool for restoring data and partitions on a hard disk. It supports work with various types of file systems, including ext4. The utility allows you to scan data storage devices and detect deleted or damaged partitions.
2. Using Photorec: This is another program from the TestDisk package solution provided by the CGSecurity team. Photorec specializes in finding fragmented files (files without headers) and can successfully extract such data from the structure of Ext systems.
3. Use Foremost: this is the second open source software for digital examination of computer problems, used by the US government when conducting investigations regarding electronic correspondence.
When using any tool, it is always recommended to work with a copy of the disk or partition to avoid possible data loss. It is also important to remember that the success of recovery depends on many factors, such as the degree of damage to the file system and activity on the hard drive after deleting files.
In any case, it is recommended to contact a computer service specialist or Linux technical support center for more detailed instructions and advice.
