Recovered my career 
I had lost 8GB of data from a USB that wasn't safely removed. This program was fantastic. It really works and I'll be emailing all my friends to let them know it's out there. Thank you so much, you were my savior.

It works true and free 
By accident I formatted my photo camera sd memory card after I had copied some of the files (but NOT all of them) to my hard disk. D amned! that sucked. I googled for a freeware program that could rescue my files, even when I had formatted the memory card, then RECUVA came up and I downloaded the file and did set up. In less than 6 minutes I had recovered my missing files 100% o.k. I used the ADVANCED modus as step 2 after the normal scan step 1 did not produce anything. Anyway...I am very satisfied of the easy way to recover files on a SD memory card. This program does what it promised and is 100% FREEware.

Excellent for a few files 
This is the most effective when recovering a few or a small amount of files, but when trying to recover a couple thousand files, it can still recover most of them.

Very fast and easy 
This is a nice and easy tool, simple and extremely fast. lost some pictures, made the hero of the day in my family. I used only the wizard that guides you easily through some simple steps, great product, great idea, well done.

Brillant 
Just used this program to recover files from a damaged HDD. Thanks Piriform. In fact Recuva recovered more files than a leading 'paid for' program. I would highly recommend this program.

Recovery 
My final essay for a junior level college english class became corrupted and could not be recovered. i looked for recovery freeware and only found demos that never did anything. This baby actually did it for FREE! i got my entire essay back with nothing lost. i just want to say thank you to the creators of this program because they have saved me. so Thank you.

Fast, easy, smart, and free 
There are nice restoration app out there, some nice standalones, buy they lack to be smart enough to help you find what you need, not offering very technical options, neither beeing so minimalistic. With this software in less than 3 minutes, I install, I search, I found and restore what I lost (some file images deleted automatically by a download manager, so they were not in the recycle bin).[for nice standalone try "DiskDigger" also here] Thanks again webattack!!!

Ultimate free software for recovering photos 
My hard drive failed in a moment when all data from last photo session was uploaded from SD card and card was erased. I tried to recover files with a dozen programs from snapfiles.com. Only a few showed these files - and were quite expensive. Other freeware was not successful. RECUVA did it immediately and effectively, better. This was no test, this was reality. Thank you guys from RECUVA. Wish you success in your business and private life. Vojko
