Undelete files and recover lost data
File Scavenger is a file undelete and data recovery utility for Windows XP, Windows 7, Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, Windows NT and Windows ME/98/95. File Scavenger can recover files that have been accidentally deleted (including files removed from the Recycle Bin, in a DOS window, from a network drive, from Windows Explorer with the SHIFT key held down) provided that recovery is attempted before the files are permanently overwritten by new data. File Scavenger supports both basic and dynamic disks, NTFS compression, alternate data streams, sparse files, Unicode filenames, etc. Except in severe cases, both the file and the folder path leading to the file can be recovered.

Recovered from a reformatted or corrupted volume
With File Scavenger files can be recovered from a reformatted or corrupted volume. This is even possible when the volume has been deleted and its original position and size are unknown. File Scavenger can scan an entire physical hard drive to look for traces of defunct volumes.
Bad sectors and badly corrupted partitions
File Scavenger uses advanced algorithms to transparently handle disks with many bad sectors and badly corrupted partitions. The software can be installed on a hard drive or run from a floppy disk. To run File Scavenger, you must log on as a system administrator to the computer where data recovery is intended.
