Software Data Recovery

For data recovery there are several programs that could be used, along with some slightly more advanced techniques such as changing electronics. We will comment on some of these programs (the most important, because really there is a wide variety on the market).

Among the most prominent are the following:

Software Data Recovery:

• PCInspector File Recovery.

• PCInspector Smart Recovery.

• GetDataBack.

We begin with PCInspector File Recovery. This program is one of the best known in the world of data recovery software. As a main feature to highlight tell which is a program licensed freeware (free use). It can recover files and recover lost data on the hard disk, floppy disks, USB sticks (even, and I have found in the memory Stick).

Supports systems FAT 12 (floppy), FAT 16, FAT 32 and NTFS (NT, 2000, XP).

It can retrieve data from any of the previous reports even without knowing an indication of root path.

With regard to how the program would read as follows:

Each time we start the program, we must choose the language.

Then we have three tabs on the left side with reconstruction methods that can be used. These three options are: Recovering deleted files, find lost data and find the lost unity.

Let's start with the first option: Recovering deleted files.

Click the icon recover deleted files. Here is an analysis and shows a screen in which we see the list of logical drives, select the desired button and click to verify. And we come to the screen where we are green deleted files and their status, which describes the state in which they are to be recovered.

This screen is a semblance of explorer with a tree structure in which you can see the hierarchy of files. If you click on a folder on the left, its contents will appear on the right. If you click on a file and give it the right mouse button, a menu will appear with all the possible options, including select "Save to disk" to retrieve the file.

This has been particularly as the tool PCInspector File Recovery, I can only say that you can download this tool from the website: http://www.pcinspector.de

Now it is the turn to the tool PCInspector Smart Recovery. This tool is the family of tools PCInspector (as its name suggests). It is a data recovery program for Flash Card ™, Smart Media ™, IBM ™ Micro Drive, SONY Memory Stick ™, Secure Digital Card and Multimedia Card. This program also has the advantage of being a freeware program (free).

This program is very easy to use and very intuitive, in addition to function under all Windows family of operating systems.

Smart Recovery supports the following image formats. Jpg,. Tif,. Crw, Olympus. ORF, Fuji. RAF. They can also be restored video files. Avi, QuickTime. MOV as well as audio. Wav and. DSS.

We will explain its functioning:

Meter the memory card into a card reader (although it can be done directly from the camera or from any other device with USB connection). Start the program, which shows three columns. In the left column, we listed the "choose recorder", which refers to the place where we inserted the card (the unit, J:, F: X, etc…).

After the selected unit, in the left column, we see the option "choose the type of file." With this option we can find a particular format, many of which gives us the program, although it is more advisable to leave it on automatic.

Finally, in the right column, we have an option "choose the destination." With this option you can choose the destination where the program will put the file or files recovered. We must give it a file name. If retrieve several files, the program itself puts the name given by adding a serial number.

Press the Start button and hope that the status bar reaches one hundred percent.

When finished, do not appear more screens, we go to the path we have indicated on the fate and see that all files are recovered.

And with this we have finished with the tool PCInspector Smart Recovery.

Finally is true that you can download from http://www.pcinspector.de

Now talk about the tool GetDataBack.

This tool is very powerful, can retrieve data from a disk even when Windows does not detect. It is commonly used to occur after the invasion of a virus into the system.

It is very easy to use as their IU is in the form of browser. It can retrieve all sorts of data, music, images and other file has been deleted, even when the deletion was made some time ago.

The only drawback of this program is that it is not freeware, but its price is not excessively expensive. It all depends on the importance it has for us the missing information.

It can be downloaded from: http://www.runtime.org/downloads.html and there are two different versions, one in another in NTFS and FAT. Choosing the right is very important.

Enter in the field:

The installation is very simple, with a wizard of the next, next, next… While we must bear in mind that we can not install on the drive you want to recover.

Now we opened the program. The move is a "Step 1: Scan for drivers", ie scanning units. Here we can select the desired units, and then click Next.

We turn to step two. "Step 2: Select Source." In this step we can select the type of partition and file system. Then click next and spent the next step.

The next step is to "Step 3: Select Range and file System." As we want to be showing everything I can recover, leaving the choices made by the program itself and give it to next.

On the next screen we see the process. Sometimes we can find files sizes equal and sometimes of different sizes, this will depend on the size of the original file and the amount of file that is capable of recovering.

We now turn to Step four: "Step 4: Select File System." This section shows the file systems and in which sectors are. Choose one of them and click next. We see that now is doing operations involving the removal of indexes and then we show the step five.

"Step 5: Recovery Tree." This screen is the same look that a Windows Explorer.

To retrieve a folder, in this step we are moving on it, click the right mouse button and give the copy option. We path where we are going to save (must be created previously), and give you the option to recover deleted files and folders (usually come marked). And press the OK button, we will recover the desired content.

And this has all been friends about the software data recovery. I hope you have been useful in future editions and write more articles that pique your interest and technological I hope you serve aid. Thank you for your attention and has been a pleasure writing this article.
