Index the files and use Windows Search to search inside each file. There is some old DOS Comnand called, I think Find, that can search inside files. But try Windows first. Or if you are good in scripting, you can code a simple script. Sent from my iPhone On 29 Jan 2010, at 22:21, mambo mutua <am.mambo@gmail.com> wrote:
Skunks,
I managed to recover 20000 text files out of a formatted HDD. My challenge is the application I used to recover with renamed all files to a different name. Out of the 20000 recovered, I only need one.
Fine, this is easy with a linux distro, but am in a remote area where I cant find one. I need to use the file tomorrow. Am currently on vista. Any help?
