Not only is the tool effective in recovering lost data, it can also be used to restore corrupted file systems in a Linux environment. It is possible to recover deleted files in Linux with TestDisk Data Recovery Tool. For example, a file ‘linuxshelltips’ on removable media (/dev/sdb5) on our Linux system at (/media/dnyce/117137A85FFD287C) partition was deleted and needs to be restored. To recover deleted or lost files, illustration is needed. Often, when these files are deleted, they cannot be recovered because people do not have the technical know-how to deal with them.

Losing files can generally be a painful experience, especially when it comes to a lot of vital information and Linux users are not exempted.
