Data Recovery

Data Recovery is a software tool which was created specifically in order to help people retrieve data from damaged removable storage units, such as CDs, DVDs, BDs, memory card and USB flash drives.
The installation is a piece of cake, and after completing it, you come face to face with a straightforward UI. It is comprised of several buttons and a panel to display all detected portable devices and thus, it becomes clear that all user categories can find their way around it, without encountering problems.
This utility features multiple levels of recovery, which enable you to choose between faster processes with less grabbed data or slower ones with more chances to get all the information stored on a particular damaged device.
In order to access files from a scratched CD or other storage unit, you are required to add it to the software program with the help of the built-in file browser, select a retrieval level and an output folder.
A progress bar will let you approximate the amount of time required to finish the recovery, and when it is done, a new window will pop up, displaying the number of completely and partially copied files, as well as those that could not be retrieved. You should know this process takes a toll on your computer’s performance, so it might be a good idea not to run it alongside other demanding applications.
Although Data Recovery cannot actually perform miracles and recover all the data from badly damaged portable storage units, it remains a pretty efficient piece of software, with a good response time and a user-friendly interface.
