Recovering thumbcacheXX.db

#1 Post by kaffee »

Hello,
I was trying to recover som accidentally deleted thumbcache files (thumbcache_96.db, thumbcache_256.db, both automatically created by Windows7-64). I just can't seem to make my photorec.sig correctly identify my files (tried fidentify_win, but my example files weren't recognized). Any idea how I could get it to work would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Can you send me an email with 3 file samples ? I will try to find a working signature.
