The Research of Excel File Fragmentation Data Recovery

Abstract:

Because the Excel file is often edited, the data blocks stored in the hard disk which make up the Excel file is often not continuous. Discontinuous storage fragmented files, deleted or formatted, with the current data recovery software to restore the effect is very poor, often file recovery, but can not open or is garbled. Therefore it makes sense to study an effective recovery method to recover Excel fragmented files. Based on "Laura" file format, first introduced the Windows platform fragmented files, and then given an Excel file fragmentation recognition method, final based on debris identify given Excel file fragmentation restructuring.
