SysInfoTools NTFS Recovery

If you are worried about losing important data due to unexpected drive issues, you are not the only one. Corruption can make your files inaccessible, which is why a specialized recovery tool is a good thing to have at hand.
SysInfoTools NTFS Recovery is a relatively simple program designed to help you restore files from drives that have been formatted using the NTFS file system. It is easy to use, but it lacks advanced features and is not very versatile.

Features a straightforward wizard-based UI

From the start, it should be clear that this application was designed with ease-of-use in mind, and that it is primarily aimed at novices. The entire recovery process consists of a few simple steps, and the UI layout if fairly self-explanatory.
However, the user interface is not exactly eye-catching, and the main program window cannot be resized, which would have helped when previewing files.

Offers several recovery modes, but no other advanced features

Once you have selected the drive to be scanned, you need to specify which of the three recovery modes should be employed: Standard, Advanced or Deep. However, the differences between them are not detailed in the documentation.
Finally, the application allows you to view the files that can be recovered, so as to select the ones that need to be saved. Unfortunately, though, it is not possible to preview their contents.
A simple search function is included, and while it may come in handy, it is worth noting that no other filters are available, and you cannot sort items in any way.

No-nonsense data recovery app for NTFS drives

SysInfoTools NTFS Recovery should get the job done, provided you only need to deal with drives that have been formatted using the NTFS file system. If you need a software solution that could help you retrieve data from a broad range of systems, you should probably look for a more versatile application.
