I am using scalpel to recover an accidently deleted rar file which is 476 MB in size. I have the following config setting to recover rar files:

   rar     n       10000000000000000000        Rar!

and running the following command:

sudo scalpel /dev/sda1 -o ./recovered/

it shows the following result:

Scalpel version 1.60

Written by Golden G. Richard III, based on Foremost 0.69.

Done.

But when I browse the recovered folder as root and check the size of the recovered rar it says it is only 42.1 MB in size. How can I recover the whole RAR file? Please Help.
