Data File Recovery

Archive for March, 2010

I didn’t create my recovery disk until I had the computer for almost a year. By then, I had added a number of programs. Everything I read about recovery disks indicates that your computer will be restored to the original settings. That assumes, however, that the recovery disk was created upon first obtaining the computer.

Will my disks recover the computer to the original factory settings, or will they also contain all of the programs that were on the computer when I created the disks?

Thank you for your responses!

back to when you you first got it

im looking for a free file recovery program that works well, i dont want to pay 40 dollars to get a few files back.

Try Recuva. It’s easy to use, works well, and it’s free.

well, I have a large hard drive from which I need to make a recovery, it has been formatted..a while ago and I want to recover it’s files….I already tried "Get Data Back" and it didnt work, is there anything better than that?
I am asking specifically about the performance of "get data back" compared to other programs, I do not need clarification on the factors that favor recovering the files

Depends upon how long ago, and more importantly how much usage the computer has seen since then.

If the drive was formatted a month ago but never had anything written to it, and has been sitting unused in a closet since then- recovery programs have an excellent chance.

If the system has been used regularly since then and had programs installed and files saved, recovery chances go down the drain because areas of the hard disk containing those old files have now been overwritten with different data.

You might try Pandora Recovery or Final Recovery- those are pretty good but subject to the same restrictions mentioned above.

I have picture and video files that were deleted a few weeks ago and I’ve been trying to find a very good software that can restore those deleted files. So far, the few softwares that I have downloaded couldn’t restore the videos from my camera because the file size was too large. It would be great if there is a free software though, but I haven’t found a good one yet. Thank You!

This is supposed to be a good photo recovery program. It has been released as free software:

Recuva is a good file recovery program that also recovers photos. It is also free:

To recover some files that have been deleted, how much would it cost for someone to get them back?
I know it can be done with free tools, I just want to know how much it would be for a company to do it.

They charge a lot of money for this! i would say they would rip you off at £100 or more. If your lucky under a 100

How do I recover files in a damaged/corrupted version of windows XP that won’t open? Some people have suggested using third party recovery tools, or going to tweakxp.com, but where do I find the tools, or what do I do on tweakxp.com?
