Accidentally deleted your files? GetDataBack Data Recovery can track them down--for a price. It even works with corrupted drives and those not recognized by Windows. This version only recovers files from FAT drives, but it does offer a search tool for quickly locating a file by its date, name, or size.

If you suspect your actual disk is about to bite the dust, you can create a drive image to use during recovery. The utility can't make rescue discs, however, so if you want to do that, you'll need to build yourself a bootable Windows PE disc and add GetDataBack Data Recovery to it--the publisher's Web site has instructions.

Although the application proves quite adept at locating deleted files, and you can view their contents, the demo won't recover them. We can't vouch for how well this core feature works. GetDataBack Data Recovery seems worth trying, but if you actually want to recover any lost work, this demo won't do you much good.

Developer's Description

GetDataBack Data Recovery is a highly advanced data recovery software that will help you get your data back when your drive's partition table, boot record, or FAT/MFT or root directory is corrupt, a virus has hit the drive; when files are deleted; or when the drive is struck by a power failure. The software can even recover your data when the drive is no longer recognized by the operating system or when all directory information is lost. Advanced algorithms will make sure all directories and subdirectories are put together as they were, and that long filenames are reconstructed correctly. GetDataBack Data Recovery is safe because it's read-only, which means the program will never attempt to write to the drive you are about to recover.
