  • I'm guessing you've been using a video chat system like Skype (or millions of others) These programs do not use a "file" as such - the webcam captures images, which are sent to the remote computer (yours) and then displayed on your screen. Each image is then discarded as the next replaces it. I do not think there is anything to recover. There are utilities you can sometimes capture the video and sound as it happens - Camstudio is one - but even these are not perfect - if the video chat system you're using makes use of the video acceleration hardware on the video card then the images are not available to be captured. Camstudio is available free from downloada.com: http://www.download.com/1770-20_4-0.html?query=camstudio&tag=srch&searchtype=downloads&filterName=platform%3DWindows&filter=platform%3DWindows (scroll down a bit to get the free downloads)
