File Recover Features

What's new in this release?

This version of File Recover incorporates a number of enhancements:

• Enhanced user interface

  File Recover's user interface has been redesigned to offer a more intuitive and user friendly experience. The start scan screen now offers simple customizations to allow easy filtering of file types and a search option for “all or part of a filename.” The scan results screen has also been enhanced to display recovered files by either file type or directory.

• Enhanced scan engine

  The scanning engine has been re-engineered to provide faster scanning and increased accuracy for detection of deleted files.

• Repair corrupted Word and Zip files

  File Recover now has the ability to find and repair corrupted Word and Zip files. This is a vital feature that provides the ability to retrieve those files that may have been corrupted, and previously thought unrecoverable.

• Improved file previewing

  File Recover’s file previewing feature allows you to easily view the contents of recoverable files before they are recovered. File Recover now supports previewing in a number of formant including HTML, Word and Graphics files.

• Pause scanning

  Scans can now be paused, allowing you to view partly-completed scan results or conduct other activities on your computer before continuing with the scan. This feature is most useful when conducting scans on large drives, which may take considerable time to complete and may consume computer resources.

File Recover Features

• Recovers files instantly from hard drives, floppy disks and other types of fixed media.

  File Recover has a rapid scan engine which is capable of scanning a typical hard drive for recoverable files within minutes. If you are a home user or a network administrator, File Recover fills a critical gap in your data protection strategy.

• Scan selected hard drives or partitions for specific files.

  File Recover can scan a specified drive or partition for specific recoverable files filtered on part or all of a file name.

• Recoverable files found can be sorted according to multiple criteria.

  File Recover presents recoverable files found on a drive or partition in a list, which can be easily sorted by File Name, Condition, Original Location, Modification date, Size, Recovery state and File Type.

• Utilizes a non-destructive, read-only file recovery approach.

  File Recover does not write or make changes to the section of the drive from which it is recovering data.

• File Recover supports a range of other features which include:

  • Batch file recovery (recovers multiple files in one action).
  • Works around bad-sector disk areas. Recovers data where other programs fail.
  • Support for IDE/ATA/SCSI hard drives.
