Publisher's description of File Scavenger Data Recovery

From QueTek Consulting:

File Scavenger is a file-undelete and data-recovery utility. Files accidentally deleted from Windows Explorer, the Recycle Bin, the command line window, or a network share can be recovered along with the original folder name and dates. Reformatted volumes, broken spanned volumes, or broken hardware and software RAID volumes also can be recovered. Digital photos on almost all media can be recovered.

Editor's review of File Scavenger Data Recovery

• "File Scavenger Data Recovery"

• Reviewed by: CNET Staff
• Version reviewed: File Scavenger Data Recovery 3.2

This recovery tool capably finds lost files even on spanned and stripped volumes. The application worked well in our testing, finding not only recently deleted files, but also items without a name or path. File Scavenger has a straightforward interface that lets you execute all operations without going to the main menu. You can restrict searches by defining disk sectors and filename masks. Found items are displayed as a list or in a folder tree. File Scavenger recovers not only files, but also folders when it can so you won't have to arrange thousands of files manually. It doesn't have a built-in file viewer. The program doesn't take many resources and can easily run in the background. The major drawback is that it can't run without Windows. If you have multiple volumes on a Windows computer, File Scavenger seems well worth the download.

  "Every byte !"

  by charlestanbc on May 14, 2009

  Pros: Tried couple of demos and was disappointed with one that could only recover a portion of the file and another that can't find a proper file ! Tried Savenger and wow, it recovered every byte with the file names, and quick too !

  Cons: Have not come across any yet and don't intend to find out with another crash !

  "Not "FREE TO TRY" if files are over 64kb!"

  by mankando on April 28, 2009

  Pros: Small application - user friendly.
  Did a good job of recovering my .jpg files from my SDHC Card which had been deleted more than 2 weeks back.

  Cons: 64kb limit per file on the trail is TOO SMALL! ALL my .jpg pics were bigger than 64kb! 20 files (no size limit) for the trial version would be reasonable. It is a sly ruse to force you to pay $49.00. Much better option...read "Bottom-line summary"

  Summary: I HIGHLY recommend RECOVER FILES 2.02: FREE - simple - small application (only 1.16mb) - NO LIMITATIONS whatsoever! I just downloaded, installed (took only few mins). The search part was super fast. The recovery part took 20 mins for 241 files of ... read more >>
