Publisher's description

From Zero Assumption Software :

A comprehensive read-only data recovery solution - ZAR tools extract data from the damaged HDD to another medium (typically an additional HDD), leaving the original disk intact. Working from within Windows, ZAR can recover FAT16/32 and NTFS (including NTFS5) volumes. ZAR supports long and/or national file names and NTFS compression. Typical recoverable damage profiles include volumes accidentally formatted, corrupted by a virus or ill-behaved software, due to power failure or as a side effect of overclocking and so on. There is no need to install the software prior to data loss. During DOS-mode operation, ZAR can aslo scan for and retrieve partitioning information from the damaged disk.

Version: Zero Assumption Recovery 8.4

"No Disappointments unless you have more than 4 folders"

by angelyukiri on December 6, 2009

Pros: RECOVERED ALL MY FILES even the ones i didn't want but ok =D

Cons: Not really anything o-o sides i guess a bit complicated and hard to figure out for beginners

Summary: at first i had no expectations and thought this probably would be exactly like that virtual lab thing where you had to buy the quota but it wasn't =D and it saved me from losing some precious music from one of my newly damaged flash drives. YAY ZAR!... read more >>

"Keeps me up to date&I dont even have to think about it."

by vantopboy on October 28, 2009

Pros: Works well independantly - dont have to tell it what to do, when to check or anything. The best thing is that it tells me when I need to update - thats the easy part.

Cons: None - except that things can change so frequently I feel im always updating programs

Summary: I love the product and recomend anyone who used Cnet to get on this download
