If you are using MS-DOS Delete Sentry and the setting ARCHIVE=FALSE has
been changed to ARCHIVE=TRUE in the UNDELETE.INI file, some files may not
be backed up in the SENTRY directory.
CAUSE
If you set the ARCHIVE= setting in the UNDELETE.INI file to TRUE, the only
files that are stored in the SENTRY directory are those that have the
Archive attribute set. Any files that do not have the Archive attribute set
at time of deletion are not stored in the SENTRY directory and cannot be
recovered using Undelete Delete Sentry (UNDELETE /S).
WORKAROUND
There is a possibility that the file may be recovered using the standard MS-
DOS method of recovering files (UNDELETE /DOS).
