How the hell do I recover files I accidently removed
after a scan by Microsoft Antispyware?

Hi
Maybe if you look in MSAS helpfile.......
One thing is complete wrong with this manual ! Move your
restored files
before you restart in step 5 also it can take hours to see
your files in step 3.
This is Beta......... !

From helpfile:
Restoring Quarantined Programs
If you have accidentally quarantined a program, you can
remove it from quarantine and restore it to its original state.
How to restore a quarantined item
1. From the main screen, or any of the screens with the
toolbar, click Spyware Scan (this is the product icon).
2. On the top right of the screen under the Take me to...
section, select Spyware Quarantine.
3. A list of all items in your quarantine is displayed.
Select the item you would like to un-quarantine and when the
item appears in the right details window, select
Un-quarantine Threat. This restores the item to its original
state before it was quarantined.
4. To un-quarantine multiple items in the quarantine, select
each item and click Un-quarantine All Checked Threats at the
bottom of the screen.
5. After you un-quarantine an item you should restart your
computer to make sure the restored application runs.

Frankly, I've yet to read of a successful recovery of files actually
removed--as opposed to quarantined. I'd love to have you prove me wrong,
and be able to say that xyz data recovery program got everything back--but
experiences posted here have not been encouraging.

They certainly have not been encouraging Bill.

Well, it works, I have done it myself but not
with GB volymes. It was about 100MB restored.

Good to know--I was having trouble believing that the product really worked
at destroying things beyond the possibility of retrieval.
One thought that I have is that the System Restore that MANY folks try in
the course of trying to get stuff back makes things worse, rather than
better, but I don't know why that would be.
