Hi,

How you are doing undelete operation?

Is it with command line or with UI Extract ?

Through UI Extract

Hi

If your are doing with UI then you get a CSV file of all deleted records just upsert all of those .

Then you dont need IsDeleted =false it automatically becomes false when you insert records.

 isDeleted has read-only access....if you want to set the value as false via dataloader, that call is by queryAll. Even it is also having read-only access to the field isDeleted

You can use custom data loaders to (possibly) recover the data, but the Apex Data Loader has no function for "undelete" in its interface (as far as I can tell).

I agree with fox, rather you can go with this approach:
