testdisk won't show "undelete" option for my Linux Mint partition
I was testing Encfs gnome, when the folder I tried to encrypt didn't really encrypt (only copied to enfcs manager), so I deleted the folder form enfcs manager then when I checked my documents folder where the folder was stored I saw that it was gone, so I tried to use testdisk, but the deleted files wouldn't show. Then I discovered that I need to go in to "undelete" I couldn't see it as an option on my partition where Linux Mint is installed and where the folder was deleted, only on the MS Data partition. I am running a dual boot with Windows to play some Steam games, but Linux Mint is my main OS. I also have my LM home folder encrypted if that is causing any issues. I have included an image of there not being a undelete option.

I have EXACTLY the same problem. I deleted files on this partition, but cannot use testdisk as it does not show the undelete option as the OP states above.
