[kwlug-disc] Recovering deleted files

[Jason Locklin]

ntfsundelete requires access to the device (unmounted). So yes local,
but not mounted. On second reading, that might not be what Oksana was
asking for. ntfsundelete just tries to recover files that have been
marked deleted by the file-system but haven't yet been completely
overwritten.
