UNSCRATCH FILES..THIS IS A UTILITY TO BR ING BACK FILES WHICH HAS PREVIOUSLY BEEN DELETED. WHEN A FILE IS DELETED, IT IS NOT REALLY REMOVED FROM THE DISK. THE DOS (DISK OPERATING SYSTEM) MAKES TWO CH ANGES WHICH RENDER THE FILE AS DELETED: ONE, THE FILE TYPE FLAG IS ERASED (SET TO 0), MAKING THE FILE UNRECOGNIZABLE TO THE DOS. TWO, THE SPACE WHICH THE FILE USED ON THE DISK IS MADE AVAILABLE TO U SE AS STORAGE FOR OTHER FILES. YOU SHOU LD THEREFORE RESTORE SCRATCHED FILES BEF ORE SAVING SOMETHING NEW ON THE DISK. I T WILL WORK ONLY WITH 1541, 1571, 1581 A ND COMPATIBLE DISK DRIVES...SPECIAL NOTE TO GEOS USERS: YOU CAN UNSCRATCH GEOS FILES USING THIS UTILITY. HOWEVER, YOU MUST VALIDATE THE DISK FROM THE GEOS DES KTOP BEFORE FURTHER SAVING ANYTHING TO T HE DISK. FURTHERMORE, AS AN OUNCE OF PR EVENTION IF YOU SUSPECT THAT THE DISK HA S BEEN WRITTEN TO SINCE THE FILES WERE D ELETED, COPY ALL THE NON-DELETED FILES T O ANOTHER DISK BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REST ORE LOST GEOS FILES...YOU WILL BE ASKED TO INSERT THE TARGET DISK, THE DISK WITH THE FILES YOU WANT TO UNSCRATCH. THE D IRECTORY IS THEN READ INTO THE COMPUTER' S MEMORY. IF THERE ARE NO DELETED FILE ENTRY IN THE DISK'S DIRECTORY, THE MESSA GE "NO VALID FILES" APPEARS, AND THE UNS CRATCH UTILITY IS ABORTED...MOVE THE CUR SOR UP AND DOWN USING THE CURSOR KEYS, T HE + AND - KEYS TO MOVE ONE PAGE UP AND DOWN RESPECTIVELY, AND HOME TO GO TO THE TOP OF THE DIRECTORY...ALL FILES WILL I NITIALLY BE MARKED AS '*DEL'. TO RESTOR E A FILE YOU MUST SELECT A FILE TYPE. Y OUR CHOICES ARE LISTED AT THE TOP OF THE SCREEN. IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE THAT YOU SELECT THE RIGHT FILE TYPE, AS USING THE WRONG FILE TYPE WILL IN MOST CASES PROHIBIT THE CORRECT FUNCTION AND USE OF THE FILE. TO UNDO THE SELECTION OF A FILE, PRESS D TO MAKE IT A DELETED FILE...SOME FILES MAY BE MARKED AS "BLOC KED". A BLOCKED FILE IS A FILE WHICH IS MARKED IN THE DIRECTORY AS DELETED, BUT THE BLOCK WHERE THE FIRST PART OF THE F ILE SHOULD BE IS MARKED AS USED IN THE B AM. THIS WOULD MEAN THAT THE BLOCK IS N OW OCCUPIED BY A VALID FILE. A BLOCKED FILE IS THEREBY UNRECOVERABLE SINCE THER E IS NO WAY KNOWING WHERE THE REST OF TH E FILE MIGHT BE ON THE DISK...A FILE MIG HT BE UNRIGHTFULLY "BLOCKED" DUE TO AN E RROR IN THE BAM. IF YOU EXPERIENCE THAT THE UNSCRATCH UTILITY IDENTIFIES THAT T HE FILE IS BLOCKED ALTHOUGH YOU THINK IT SHOULD BE RECOVERABLE, VALIDATE THE DIS K AND ATTEMPT UNSCRATCHING THE FILE AGAI N...PLEASE NOTE: A FILE NAME MIGHT APPE AR MORE THAN ONCE IN THE DIRECTORY. YOU SEE TWO OR MORE IDENTICAL NAMES, AND YO U DON'T KNOW WHICH IS THE RIGHT ONE. A DELETED FILE MAY ALSO HAVE THE SAME NAME AS A VALID FILE. THE SOLUTION: RESTOR E BOTH. THEN RENAME THE FIRST ONE, THE RENAME COMMAND WILL ONLY AFFECT THE FIRS T FILE THAT MATCH THE COMMAND PARAMETERS . REPEAT IF MORE THAN TWO IDENTICAL FIL ES. TRY USING THE NEWLY RESTORED FILES TO SEE WHICH ONE(S) YOU WOULD LIKE TO KE EP. SCRATCH THE OTHER ONES AND, IMPORTA NT!, VALIDATE THE DISK TO MAKE SURE THE BAM IS OK...SINCE THE DISK SPACE PREVIOU SLY OCCUPIED BY SCRATCHED FILES IS LEFT FREE FOR OTHER FILES TO OVERWRITE, UNSCR ATCHING DOES IMPLY SOME POTENTIAL PROBLE MS. TO BE ABSOLUTELY SURE THAT A FILE C AN BE RESTORED, IT MUST BE UNSCRATCHED B EFORE SOMETHING NEW IS WRITTEN TO THE DI SK. ALL MIGHT NOT BE LOST HOWEVER, EVEN IF THE DISK HAS BEEN WRITTEN TO. EACH SUBSEQUENT WRITE TO THE DISK REDUCE THE ODDS THAT PREVIOUSLY SCRATCHED FILES CAN BE RESTORED. IF SUBSEQUENT WRITES HAS OCCURRED, OR IF YOU'RE IN DOUBT, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING:..1) A SCRATCHED FILE MIGHT BE PARTLY OVERWRITTEN. WHEN YOU DON'T FIND THE FILE CONTENTS YOU EXPECT, THE FILE IS GARBAGE, PARTLY GARBAGE, PA RTLY MISSING OR HAS PARTS THAT REPEAT, Y OU ARE PROBABLY DEALING WITH A PARTLY OV ERWRITTEN FILE. IF A NEW FILE SAVED TO THE DISK HAPPENS TO CLAIM EVEN A SINGLE BLOCK OF THE SCRATCHED FILE, THAT BLOCK AND THE REST OF THE DELETED FILE IS LOST . THIS IS WHY: THE TWO FIRST BYTES OF EACH BLOCK IN THE FILE ALWAYS POINTS TO THE NEXT BLOCK IN THE FILE (UNLESS IT'S THE LAST BLOCK). NOW, IF ONE BLOCK IS O VERWRITTEN, THE POINTERS FOR THE NEXT BL OCK WILL OBVIOUSLY POINT TOWARDS THE RES T OF THE NEW FILE. AT SOME POINT THEREF ORE, THE TWO FILES WILL SEEM TO HAVE BEE N SPLICED INTO ONE. THE SOLUTION: IF Y OU WANT TO TRY TO RECOVER AS MUCH AS POS SIBLE OF THE FILE IN QUESTION, COPY IT. EITHER TO ANOTHER DISK OR BY USING THE COPY COMMAND TO MAKE A COPY UNDER A NEW NAME. SCRATCH THE ORIGINAL FILE AND, IM PORTANT!, VALIDATE THE DISK TO MAKE SURE THE BAM IS OK...2) A FILE MIGHT BE "LOO PING". THIS IS A PHENOMENON WHICH IS VE RY RARE, AND EQUALLY DIFFICULT TO RECOVE R FROM. IT IS RELATED TO THE "PARTLY OV ERWRITTEN FILE" PROBLEM. WHAT HAPPENS I S THAT, DURING THE COURSE OF EVENTS, THE POINTERS IN ONE OF THE BLOCKS ARE NOW, DUE TO OVERWRITING, POINTING BACK TO AN EARLIER BLOCK IN THE SAME "FILE". THE " FILE" WILL THEN REPEAT ITSELF INTO INFIN ITY. WE CAN'T REALLY CALL IT A FILE, IT 'S JUST A COMPLETE JUMBLE. THE UNSCRATC H UTILITY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO FINISH B ECAUSE IT WILL NEVER STOP VALIDATING THE FILE. THE SAME GOES FOR SCRATCHING, LO ADING, READING OR ANY OTHER OPERATION ON THE FILE; IT JUST REPEATS FOREVER! THE SOLUTION: RESET YOUR SYSTEM. THE BEST SOLUTION IS TO CLEAR THE FILE'S IDENTIF IER IN THE DIRECTORY USING A SECTOR EDIT OR, THEN VALIDATE THE DISK. IF YOU DON' T HAVE THE MEANS OR KNOWLEDGE TO DO THAT , COPY ALL THE OTHER FILES TO ANOTHER DI SK USING A FILE COPIER. IF THERE IS A B OOT SECTOR ON THE ORIGINAL DISK, DO A "S HORT NEW" (FORMATTING THE DISK WITHOUT S PECIFYING ID CHARACTERS) ON THE ORIGINAL DISK. VALIDATE THE NEW-ED DISK TO MAKE SURE THAT THE BOOT SECTOR(S), IF PRESEN T, ARE RE-PROTECTED, AND THEN FILE COPY THE FILES BACK...3) THE DIRECTORY ENTRY OF THE ORIGINAL FILE MIGHT HAVE BEEN OVE RWRITTEN. THE PLACE IN THE DIRECTORY US ED BY THE SCRATCHED FILE HAS LATER BEEN USED BY ANOTHER FILE. UNLESS YOU KNOW H OW TO USE A SECTOR EDITOR AND ARE PREPAR ED TO SPEND SOME TIME, THE FILE IS UNREC OVERABLE...YOU MAY RESTORE AS MANY FILES AS YOU WISH. TO START RESTORING THE FI LES, PRESS F1. TO BE ABSOLUTELY SURE, Y OU WILL BE ASKED TO CONFIRM YOUR ACTION. PLEASE NOTE THAT UNSCRATCHING MAY BE A LENGTHY PROCESS AS THE DISK HAS TO BE V ALIDATED, RECLAIMING THE SPACE FOR THE R ESTORED FILES. IF YOU HAVEN'T SELECTED ANY FILES, THE MESSAGE "NO VALID FILES" WILL APPEAR, AND THE UNSCRATCH UTILITY I S ABORTED...IMPORTANT NOTE: IF A DISK E RROR MESSAGE APPEARS AT THIS POINT, ONE OF THE RESTORED FILES IS PROBABLY MALFUN CTIONING. IN ANY CASE, THE DISK HASN'T BEEN PROPERLY VALIDATED, AND YOU SHOULD GO ABOUT WITH GREAT CAUTION. USING THE FILE COPIER, COPY AS MANY DISKS AS POSSI BLE TO ANOTHER DISK. THE SERVANT FILE C OPIER WILL IDENTIFY THE TROUBLESOME FILE S. THEN, YOU MIGHT WANT TO TRY RECOVERI NG THOSE FILES. YOU NEED TO READ AS MUC H AS YOU CAN FROM THE ORIGINAL FILE AND SAVE IT IN A NEW FILE. THEN, SCRATCH TH E TROUBLESOME FILES AND, IMPORTANT, VALI DATE THE DISK..
