I recently deleted some files which I need back.  Not urgently but I can
use them. All I've found are 2 (highly rated) but costly programs. Is there
a freeware or donate program around?

Thanks for any help....

restore from your backup.

I'm not aware of any.  Also note that if you don't have a backup, the 
chances of recovery rapidly diminish with the length of time you've 
continued to use your Mac afterwards.

If you had a backup disk, this wouldn't have happened.  So you would do 
well to spend some time working on obtaining a backup disk so that you 
can set up Apple's built-in backup software, Time Machine, to back your 
computer up automatically.

 I do backup with Time Machine, but don't have it connected all the time.
 This was one of those times.
 Thanks for the responses. I guess I'll have to buy one of them. I ran
 their demo and most of the files are still there. I'm amazed that there
 isn't an open source for this type of thing. Indeed, that there are only 2
 really rated pay programs.

 Thanks again...
