Trying iRecoverTM
Important! Do not download or install iRecover on the drive that data has to be recovered from! See 'suggested use' below!
- Before you buy you can try iRecover however limitations apply when iRecover is run without a valid license key:
- The iRecover trial version allows you to recover the contents of one folder each time you run it. There are no file size limitations! (Also see file validation below)
In digital image recovery mode, iRecover operates as freeware with no functional limitations. Recover lost or deleted digital photos, images, pictures and multimedia from all types of digital media including digital cameras, SmartMedia, CompactFlash, Sony Memory Sticks, IBM Micro Drives, Flash cards, harddisk, and others.
iRecoverTM highlights
- It is easy to use. You can recover the data yourself as long as you are reasonably familiar with computers. iRecover is ideal for the user who knows what a hard drive is and how many there are in their system - but more technically minded users also can benefit from a wide range of configuration options.
- It is thorough. When you are trying to recover critical data, you need to be persistent and systematic. iRecover slowly and methodically crawls through your disk, checking and cross-checking everything, recovering as much data as possible. Faster programs may skip though your disk in seconds and come out empty-handed. iRecover persists and succeeds.
- It is powerful. We know that you are trying to recover important data and that every single piece you retrieve could be vital. With iRecover, nothing is assumed - it never relies on anything located on the damaged disk. If inconsistencies are discovered, thorough checks and cross-checks are used to derive the necessary information. iRecover even allows you to recover data from broken RAID arrays!
- It is safe. iRecover only reads the 'victim' disk! While scavenging the disk for file system structures iRecover will constantly monitor the disk health (if the disk is S.M.A.R.T. capable). For example, heat is one of the disk's biggest enemies. Scanning a disk sector by sector puts lots of stress on a disk causing it to warm up. If the disk gets too hot iRecover will pause and allow it to cool down where other data recovery software will happily continue, endangering your data.
Suggested use:
If you are recovering data from a system drive
The safest thing would be to shut down Windows and boot the PC from a parallel Windows installation, or move the disk to another PC and attach it as a data drive. If this is not possible then:
- Stop all non data recovery related processes and tasks. This includes automatic update tasks (Windows, Virus Scanners), backup jobs, network sharing services, peer to peer download programs, cd-burn sessions etc.. Under no circumstances should you attempt to defrag the drive or allow chkdsk to run. You may want to consider disconnecting the PC from the internet before shutting down firewalls/virusscanners.
- If iRecover is not yet installed:
- If you have a different PC you can download irecover to, download the Emergency Setup. Copy the files to a removable disk and run iRecover on the problem PC using the removable drive.
- If you do not have an additional PC to download iRecover, download the Emergency Setup to a removable drive, a USB stick is excellent. Run the setup and specify the removable drive as the target installation drive.
Recovering data from a non system drive
Stop all processes and applications that might access the affected drive and disconnect shares. This includes automatic update tasks (Windows, Virus Scanners), backup jobs, network sharing services, peer to peer download programs, cd-burn sessions etc.. Download, install (not on the problem drive!) and run iRecover as quickly as possible.
iRecoverTM features unique File Validation
Many file formats have recognizable structures, headers and 'magic bytes'. For files of types that are recognized by the validation engine the internal file structure is partially examined. If the extension of a file matches found structures, headers and magic bytes the file is probably intact. If the file extension does not correspond with found structures etc., is is almost certain that the file is corrupt.
Requirements :
- Windows 2000 or higher
