Recovery Toolbox File Undelete Free

Recovery Toolbox File Undelete Free is a pretty simple software program whose purpose is to retrieve files from your hard drive, including those removed using the “Shift+Delete” hotkey.

Simple setup and wizard-like interface

The installation process is over in a jiffy and it does not offer to download any products that are not actually necessary for the application to function fully. After you complete it, you are greeted by a pretty simple and clean interface which is built as a wizard, with tips and advice at every step, and thus making sure that all types of users can get around it.

View details about recoverable items

By using this utility you can retrieve files from any drive you can think of, provided it encloses a NTFS file system. These items can be recovered even if the “Shift+Delete” shortcut keyboard was used, and you can list all of them in the main window along with details such as name, size, overwritten percentage, date, time and attributes.

Options to tweak and the retrieval process

You should know that, usually, recently deleted items are easier to retrieve, as the changes of having data written over them diminishes. It is possible to select files in order to process them, select the output directory and restore mode (directory tree or one folder for all items), and choose what action to take when a file in the target directory already exists.

Conclusion and performance

The amount of resources required is low at all times and thus, the system’s performance is not going to be hampered. The response time is good, the interface is accessible to all users and we did not come across any freezes, bugs or hangs in our tests.
Taking all of this into consideration, we can safely say Recovery Toolbox File Undelete Free is a pretty efficient piece of software for retrieving deleted items from the HDD.
