Hi,

I was trying to COPY files from a windows XP PC to my (windows XP) notebook

using a USB (thumb) drive and that XP PC overwrote my FAT index on my USB

drive. Now I do not see any of my files on my USB drive - XP corrupted my USB

index. Can anyone suggest a utility that can recover my Windows files such

as Word docs from my USB drive? I tried using ParetoLogic software but it

would not recognise my J: drive even though Windows recognized it.

Thanks in advance.

ps. I do back up my USB drive but it is over a month old. My USB drive is a few months new and

has a lot of my personal documents that I do not want to lose. I have a 5 years old

copy of Norton Utilities but am not sure if it will work- I guess I may end up installing it to find out.)

Recently I have also lost my data.I have used Stellar Phoenix data recovery software to recover my data.This software is very easy to use and provides complete recovery solution. You can use Stellar Phoenix Windows data recovery software.It will help you to recover all your file from Usb drive. Download the demo version to see the preview of your recoverable file from
