How to recover deleted folders or files (by shift+delete) from an NTFS partition


I have a 80 GB hdd in which Ubuntu is installed alongside windows. I also have a 500 GB hdd having 3 partitions in which i store my data. Actually i mistakenly deleted a folder permanently in one of the partition which is of 381 GB. That folder had all the movies in it and it accounted for almost 200 GB space of that partition. Now i am in great trouble as all my data is lost. Please someone suggest me a simple tool to recover that folder and all the files in it because i am only 13 years old and don't understand Ubuntu much..!!



There are two command line tools available for Ubuntu to recover deleted files on an NTFS partition:




Just to mention this in case you are uncomfortable with the command line. There is a graphical tool NTFS undelete available for Windows only.
