Developer’s Description

Safeguard your data and recover files from loss.

Disk Drill is a professional-grade file recovery software program designed to safeguard your data and recover your files from loss. Disk Drill is a free hard drive data recovery app for Windows (it supports XP, Vista, 7, 8 and 10). It is a simple and neat app that offers professional-grade recovery tools: Deep and Quick Scans, can search for a lost partition and rebuild file systems. You can recover up to 500MB of lost data for free. Disk Drill supports many file systems: NTFS, FAT, HFS, EXT4, exFAT, or even initialized disks.

Disk Drill's multiple recovery algorithms include Quick and Deep Scans, Universal Partition Search, and undeletion of protected data. The recovery process is simple, and its progress can be paused, saved and loaded when it's convenient for you. Disk Drill reads and recovers from any media that can be mounted to your Windows PC: internal or external hard drives, memory cards, cameras, USB flash drives and even some Kindles and iPods.

Once scanning is complete, you are presented with a tree-like list of recoverable items that includes found files and folders, as well as reconstructed files. Disk Drill can easily rebuild hundreds of various file types: documents, pictures, archives, videos and more. Disk Drill is ready to become your trusted hard drive recovery software in any scenario: accidental data deletion, emptied Recycle Bin, virus attack, lost or inaccessible partition, power failure, boot record corruption, etc. Easy-to-use extra features like backup image creation, data protection, and bad sectors management, in combination with a polished user-friendly interface, ensure your satisfaction with our cost-effective do-it-yourself data recovery software.

Waste of Money. Couldnt Recover any Video
emersonsgJanuary 20, 2018
Pros
Nothing. I couldnt recover any video of my SDCARD.
Cons
I just bought the Disk Drill for windows - Pro Version and couldn´t recover any Video of my SD Card. I tried other freeware software avaliable on Internet and could recover more videos than with Disk Drill.
Summary
I recommend using Recuva. It´s much better than Disk-Drill. Despite being useless for me, they denied to reimburse me.
Great product helped me recover data that others didnt
Michael furyApril 19, 2017
Pros
Very fast and actually worked to recover my data. very happy with it.
Cons
i haven't used it long so i do not have any complaints, great product.
Summary
recovered my docs for free
collinsmallMarch 12, 2017
Pros
The great thing of Disk Drill is that I do not need to purchase it to recover files. Its free version was enough for me as I had to recover several .xlsx files only. And for other files I may loose in the future I've already activated disk drill data protection mechanism.
Cons
none for now
Summary
recovered all files I've ever deleted from ADATA

Pros
I like that it offers two separate reovery mechanisms: for files you've deleted recently, and for those which were deleted long time ago. The first one works really fast. Deep scanning takes more time, but it recovered all files I needed
Cons
I wish it was free of course. Anyway, I got it with discount, so $50 is fair price for all options disk drill offers.
Summary
must have app for a photographer
henry-james-martinMarch 2, 2017
Pros
I was very close to panic attack when I found that have deleted photos of the wedding I shoot yesterday.. One wrong click and 500+ photos disappeared. Wedding is far not that thing you can ask people to repeat, you know. Googled for photos recovery and found several apps, among which was disk drill.
Cons
Even if there were any, I didn't notice them as with each photo it recovered I felt like I'm coming back to life:)
Summary
This is the must-have app for any person who works with images and photos (after PS and Lightroom of course!)
Waste of Money
agnireduxDecember 23, 2016
Pros
It loads quickly.
Cons
1, It doesn't work. 2. Like every rip off it returns gibberish. 3. What you get back doesn't even look like the results you get from the ones that work.
Summary
I have lost I have lost $90 and all I have gotten is the run around.
Not Free as Advertised!
ttight1gmailDecember 15, 2016
Pros
None to mention
Cons
Every time we download and install something we run the risk of viruses, adware, malware, registry corruption, and on and on. To advertise this as free and then be limited to 100MB recovery and the you have to upgrade $$ is egregious.
Summary
Remember cleverfiles and steer clear!
Worked Great!
KristineT1March 24, 2015
Pros
Its free! It has a lot of really great features too, which is even better because they are all free! It worked great and recovered all my photos! I'm so glad I have this so that I can safeguard myself from having this problem! I've always been so terrified of losing all my photos of my kids, so this is great!
Cons
None! Works really well.
Summary
Outstanding!
Adele_AdamsMarch 22, 2015
Pros
It's a free data recovery software which works great.
Cons
The data recovery takes time to restore fully.
Summary
Disk Drill is a fantastic software through which I recovered my lost data. For recovering erased or formatted data, this software works nicely. It's easy to use and without any cost. :)
