DELDIR

DELDIR can enable the OS/2 undelete function. If this line is set up all files you delete are not really deleted but instead are moved to a directory specified by the DELDIR variable. If the total size of files in the delete directory is greater than the delete directory size the oldest files are deleted from the delete directory until the total size of files is smaller than the directory size. You must enable the delete directory function for every partition that you want to be able to recover files from.

SET DELDIR=Path1,Size1;Path2,Size2

Parameters:

• Path - Path must be a full path to an existing directory.
• Size - Size can be any value expressed in Kbytes.

See the examples below.

To use 4 megabytes of space for the undelete function on partition C: and 10 megabytes for the undelete function on partition E:, add this line to your CONFIG.SYS file:

SET DELDIR=C:\DELETE,4096;E:\SYSTEM\DELETE,10240
