Publisher's Description
From S2 Services:
Using a GUI interface and a Perl coded back end, Corrupt DOCX Salvager will often be able to extract text from damaged or corrupted Word 2007/2010 docx files where Word 2007/2010 fails. It can also be simply used as a viewer of the text in a docx file without having Word 2007/2010. The extracted text can even be edited in the interface. Additionally it now has a pre-extraction zip repair step and an "Alternatives" menu that improves its usefulness. The Alternatives Menu includes a shortcut to Recoveronix' Online File Repair and mentions a the coupon "S2SERVICES" good until 05/01/13 for free recovery, a $39 a pop value. Word 2007/2010 files are really conventionally zipped collections of mostly XML files. XML is not tolerant of file corruption. The text from a Word 2007/2010 document is found in the document.xml file within the larger zipped collection. From the errors it generates Word 2007/2010 appears to be using both an inadequately corruption tolerant unzipper as well as an inadequate corruption tolerant XML reading algorithm to salvage text from the mentioned XML file within corrupt docx files. Corrupt DOCX Salvager on the other hand uses a more corruption tolerant unzipper and a corruption tolerant XML reading algorithm as well, succeeding where MS Word fails.
What's new in this version: 1. In the Alternatives Menu, changed the message regarding Recoveronix' Online File Repair Service "S2SERVICES" coupon. The new deadline is May, 1 2013. 2. Also added as a pop up message box with instructions how to use the coupon. 3. Added another commercial software choice on the Alternatives menu

"Fixed Problems"
Version: Corrupt DOCX Salvager 1.03b
Pros
Won't Delete Your Damaged File Now
Cons
Perhaps not as good as a commercial program..
Summary
I fixed the problem with it renaming the extension on the damaged file and not renaming iot back. It should work better now.

"There Is a Problem With My Software"
Version: Corrupt DOCX Salvager 1.0
Pros
* You can just remove the zip extension that this program adds to your file to get it back.
Cons
* The program shouldn't be working on the original file I agree. It should work instead on a copy of the file it has made before it does anything else.
Summary
The present state is of course unacceptable. I will fix the problem soon.
