Help! Can I recover an image from...

Nightmare situation. Deleted clients 3 month old baby files by accident. Recovery software found files but they are corrupted, all of them....

SO I know I showed them to her originally in Bridge CS3 and that bridge makes a high-res preview. This preview file seems to be located in a file called, ''Filesystem_Nodes.MYD'' because in the cache folder this one is like 900+mb.

PLEASE tell me there is a way I can view/export these cache files without the original photos existing anymore...

Thanks for any help!

I'm afraid not but to be sure you should contact Adobe directly using the

contact button at top of the site.

Bridge renders previews but to my knowledge you can't extract them.

You might have heard before but again this is a proof of the importance of

using back-up, it is so easy to copy files to multiple locations and drives

or other media. It does not help you now but it will in the future!

You can recover the thumnails from that file but that is all they are Thumbnails, they are not of a size that would be useful.

There are programs that you can use to extract the jpgs, do a Google search for bitmaprip

NB: There will be thousands of Thumbnails in that file.
