As its name suggests, giis-ext4 has been designed from the ground up to support the powerful EXT4 filesystem, which is the standard Linux filesystem used by default on numerous distributions of GNU/Linux. giis-ext4 can be easily installed on any Linux kernel-based operating system that uses the EXT4 filesystem. Simply download the latest release, save the archive on your Home directory, extract its contents using an archive manager utility, and open a Terminal app. In the terminal emulator, use the 'cd' command to go to the location where you've extracted the archive file (e.g cd /home/softpedia/giis-ext4) and run the 'make' command to compile the program.

Installation Instructions:

1. Download the latest release


2. Save the archive on your Home directory


3. Extract contents using an archive manager utility


4. Open a Terminal app

After a successful installation, run the 'giis-ext4 --help' command to use the application, which doesn't require installation. The aforementioned command will display the program's usage message and available command-line options. Using these options, you will be able to undelete and recover files, list deleted files, update the program to reflect the current filesystem state, as well as to install or uninstall the software on your machine.
