Annie is searching for certain deleted files on a system running Windows XP OS. Where will she find the files if they were not completely deleted from the system?
From the official CHFI Exam guide. Pag.208, chap. 4
"■ On FAT file systems, the folder is named Recycled. For example, on your C: the
storage location of the Recycle Bin would be C:\RECYCLED.
■ On NTFS file systems used by Windows NT, 2000, and XP, this folder is named
Recycler. For example, on your C: the storage location of the Recycle Bin would be
C:\RECYCLER.
■ On NTFS file systems used by Windows Vista, this folder is named $Recycle.Bin. For
example, on your C: the storage location of the Recycle Bin would be
C:\RECYCLE.BIN."
So, answer should be C
Drive:\Recycled = Win 98 and Prior Win Versions
Drive:\Recycler = Win 2000, Win XP & Win NT
Drive:\$Recycle.Bin = Win Vista, Win 7, Win 8, Win 10, Win...
With these few points of mine, the answer is "B".
The actual location of the Recycle Bin depends on the type of operating system and file system. On older FAT file systems (typically Windows 98 and prior), it is located in Drive:\RECYCLED. In the NTFS filesystem (Windows 2000, XP, NT) it is Drive:\RECYCLER. On Windows Vista and Windows 7 it is Drive:\$Recycle.
Page 347 of CHFI e-Book states:
Each drive contains a folder to store deleted files; deleted items are stored in Drive:\$Recycle.Bin folder in Windows Vista and later versions of Windows.
The older FAT file system, used across Windows 98 and earlier versions, stored the deleted files in Drive:\RECYCLED folder, whereas the Windows 2000, XP, and NT, which deploy NTFS file system, store these files in Drive:\RECYCLER folder.
So answer should be B.
