Repair of corrupted files

Since many years I work with Starwriter, Staroffice and now Open Office. Suddenly I noticed today, that I cannot open many of my documents anymore. I use Windows XP and NTFS. Even in Windows the access is denied. They are not used by other programs or write-protected. Everything seems to be fine with these documents, but I cannot move, copy or open then. I don't know, if they are corrupted. Chkdsk finds no problems at all. Who has any suggestion to solve this problem? Attached is one of the corruppted files.

Sorry for the missing attachment. The problem is, that I cannot move, copy or open the document-files. The access is denied. The system says, that the files are in use of another program.

Sounds like you have a hung process. Use the Task Manager and make sure you don't have StarOffice processes hung and still holding on to your files.

You can serach on internet for FREE file repair software tools.

There are some good COMMERCIAL software available on the internet.

I recommend to use "Kernel Recovery for Word" software by http://www.nucleustechnologies.com , the software demo allows ypu to preview the content of corrupt word document file.

If the DEMO shows the corrupt file contents then you can purchase the software to repair your corrupt file.
