Windows 2000 server, Bad security Practice, User overwrote folder... Please Help!
Posted by jtstockton@gmail.com on March 8th, 2006


Hello all,
I am in need of someone's help, I have a brother who works for a
company in Hawaii, they have a windows 2000 server, Apparently the 3rd
party company that set up the server, did not setup a good policy, one
of the users overwrote one of their folders, they do not have a good
back up in place( Last back up was 3 months ago... ya) Is there any way
to retrieve the old folder? Not to familiar with the system, me being
in Idaho and them in Hawaii. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Justin Stockton

Justin-

I think you can achieve this task by using some third party utilities. There are many third party utilities available to retrieve the old files. Google for "Undelete" or "Recovery files for Windows server" and you will find many of them.
