Data Recovery fro CD's and DVD's

There is a very common reason for the failure of DVD's and CD's afer data has been written to them. The problem arises when the combined length of the path to the file including the filename exceeds 255 characters. Files beyond this limit cannot be seen or restored from the disk even though the write may have claimed to be sucessful.

Solution 1) flatten your filing system and use shorter directory and file names.

If its too late for that you will need help, and it should not be too expensive to get back the data.
