"Worked Great!"
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17
Pros
Simple, staightfoward. Recovered a (older) Program CD that I had chipped/cracked very slightly, but enough not to be workable any longer. Downloaded, Ran, was prompted for the damaged CD, inserted,and away it went! Was able to recover with no problem or hangups. Those who complain it took too long to complete; well, I have no complaints; it was Free, it worked - I just let it do it's thing and yes, hours later, it was finished, but I had a working Program CD for the wait!
Cons
None for me

"Worthless Product"
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17
Pros
Quick uninstall
Cons
Did not even recognize a CD in the drive. All it stated was, "Load CD."
Summary
The CD I was trying to recover only had a couple of very, minor scratches. This product is not worth trying if it cannot even detect a CD in the drive.

"Yay, it worked! Sort of."
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17
Pros
Damaged CD kept failing during installation of a program. I was able to extract the damaged file from the disc
Cons
Didn't recover the file completely.
Summary
I have a very old game that you can't get any more, and the installation failed every time because of the damaged disc. I was able to extract the files to my disc drive and get the game installed, but the installer reported one of the files didn't match what it was supposed to be.
It looks like it was just a game texture, so I don't think it will cause any problems. Maybe that texture just looks screwed up in-game. It's possible I could replace the textures anyways. -

"Can't see DVD"
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17
Pros
None. Does not work.

Never installed a program that does less.

"A great program that I recommend to everyone!"
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17
Pros
A great program that everyone needs to download, because you never know when you will need it.
Cons
It did work it's magic rather slowly, but I'm still satisfied.
Summary
I just used it for the very first time on a "coaster" (DVD-R) I just burned. I still have all the pics on my hard drive, but I decided to give this program a try. It worked very good. Out of 1,755 pics, it couldn't fully recover 6 of them. It did recover parts of them and most of 1, except for a thin gray line at the bottom of it. This is a great program that I recommend to everyone! :-) Come on and give it a try. What do you have to lose? Thanks Recovery ToolBox for a great program and thanks CNET. :-)

"Worked great"
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17

ImgBurn couldn't make an ISO of a CD I was trying to back up. This program was able to recover everything with no problem. I could then make an ISO that I could burn to the CD.

"Great Tool Does What it says!"
Version: CD Recovery Toolbox Free 1.1.17
Pros
Easy even for beginners. Pulls from all disk types.
Cons
I have not found one yet.
Summary
This tool was a real lifesaver. Got a virus and lost a lot of my biz files during repair. Had them on disks but they were old and in bad shape. This tool was able to pull ALL my files from ALL the disks which included cdr, cdrw, dvd, dvdrw, and some were old disks that I had no idea what they were.
I would advice anyone who keeps files on disk to grab this tool just in case. It even gives you a report of every file pulled and you can save them anywhere you choose!
