undelete files and folders Recuva is a file recovery tool that enables you to scan your hard drive(s) or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you with a list of files that were found, along with an assessment of their recovery potential, a preview option and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g images, audio etc.) and choose between a fast and a deep scan approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found during the scan, in order to prevent any future recoveries. Copyright Snapfiles.com

Problems with interface 4 stars by dln385413 Sep 17, 2012
A deep search of a hard disk takes about 1 hour. The deep search finds all recoverable files on the dive. You can filter the results by type or location. After completing a search, you can add additional filters. However, if you remove filters after the search, you have to do the whole one-hour search all over again. Simply, it's poorly designed. showShow review details
Excellent for a piece of freeware 5 stars by ianmacm Sep 16, 2012 (Read all my 163 reviews)
This is another example of a program which raises the question "Why pay when there are good freeware alternatives available?" The "deep scan" feature on this program is as good as many of the programs for which you will have to pay to recover files. It also seems to be faster than some of the ones that I have tried out. The performance on memory cards and pen drives was excellent, recovering numerous files just as long as they had not been overwritten. Hopefully there will never be a need to use this program because of accidentally deleted files, but it does also show the need to use erasing rather than deleting to ensure that files are unrecoverable. showShow review details
