Data recovery from flash drives in Wondershare Data Recovery
To verify, I downloaded the free version of the program from the official site http://www.wondershare.com/download-software/, I can remind you, with the help of it you can try to restore up to 100 megabytes of information.
A flash drive will serve as a drive, which was formatted in NTFS, after that documents and photos were recorded on it, and then I deleted these files and repeatedly formatted the USB flash drive, already in FAT 32.
Select file type for recovery in the wizard
The second step is the selection of the device from which you want to restore the data
Immediately after starting the program, the recovery wizard opens, offering everything to do in two steps - to specify the type of files you want to restore and from which drive to do it. If you switch the program to a standard look, we will see there are four main points:
Wondershare Data Recovery menu
- Lost File Recovery Recovery - restore remote files and data from formatted sections and removable drives, including files that have been in a cleaned basket.
- Partition Recovery - Restore remote, lost and damaged partitions with subsequent file restoration.
- RAW data recovery - to try to restore files in case all other methods did not help. In this case, file names and folder structure will not be restored.
- Continue recovery (Resume Recovery) - open the saved search data for deleted files and the continuation of the recovery process. This thing is very interesting, especially in cases where you want to restore documents and other important information from a large hard disk. Nowhere did not meet before.
In my case, I chose the first item - Lost File Recovery. In the second stage, you should select the drive from which the program needs to restore the data. Also here is the "Deep Scan" item (deep scanning). I noted him too. That's all, press the "Start" button.
The result of data recovery from the flash drive in the program
The file search process itself occupied for about 10 minutes (flash drive by 16 gigabytes). As a result, everything was found and successfully recovered.
In the window with the found files, they are sorted by type - photos, documents and others. A preview of the photos and, in addition, on the PATH tab, you can see the original folder structure.
Finally
Should I buy Wondershare Data Recovery? "I don't know, because with what has been described above, free programs for data recovery, for example, Recuva are coping with no problems. Maybe in this, paid, program is something special and is it capable of cope in more complex situations? As far as I could see (and I checked some other options, in addition to the described) - no. The only "chip" is to save scan for subsequent work with it. So, in my opinion, there is nothing special here.
