Frankly I wouldn't trust a freebee with this sort of task, although I am
certain some are equally reliable as the commercial version. The
question is which ones.
I trust you realise not to save anything back to the hard drive or
partition containing the accidentally deleted file, as this would risk
overwriting part or all of it. No application would help you then.
