Default Need to recover files on FAT16?

Hi people, I have a system that has FAT16 file system on it. I have that file system on that for some reason so I don’t need to upgrade on that….but recently I had some files deleted and now I need to get them back. They are important for my official use and hold great importance. I know that there is software for recovery but since I have a FAT16 file system I guess that all won’t work on that.

Please let me know the solution for this problem.

The files will still be there, just the directory entry will have its first character overwritten. Don't add or remove files until you have run a recovery program.
