How do I use Disk Investigator SAV files?

I am trying to recover a wordpad file from a Vista Home Basic machine.

The file was deleted then deleted from recycle bin.

I have tried all the tools on UBCD4WIN and the only one that sees anything of the file I need is Disk Investigator (v 1.4). It finds about 80 clusters (the file I believe was about 35-50kb). I add all these clusters to memory and then save the files to (external) disk and it is a SAV file. How do I convert this to rtf format? Is it possible? Am I missing something in Disk Investigator?

TIA for any suggestions.

Scan the disk with getdataback, and if it sees your file, register the utility so you can copy it off the HD.
