It saved my document! It worked! After checking the recycle bin, trying to find the document in the temp directory, trying to auto-recover using Word and using many other methods that failed, this brilliant program scratched the previous document (because Word messed up the last version and then deleted it) off the spinning spindle of my hard disk... I can't believe it's free. The author of this program is an angel, a messiah. I would vote him for president... Thank you Thank you Thank you You lifted me up from the pits of despair, weeping, sobbing and cursing myself for not printing hard copies every 20 seconds... For a more serious review: the interface was smooth and simple, it explained itself as you went along, giving you all sorts of options to filter your search and sort the results. It worked fast and well. Did I mention thank you?

Downloaded a movie around 900 meg. Accidentally deleted it before burning it. Getting ready to slash the wrists when I stumbled on Restoration. This would have to be the best tool on the internet. Within 20 seconds I had it back.

I feel this is excellent at restoring but didn't do any more than others I've used and actually is quite a bit slower. It's still better than some others though so really, it's an in between recovery app to me. Still would recommend it though and can't beat the price.

I can't tell you how many times it saved my butt, it got files off of my hard drive, and my flash drive and even my camera. It's scary as I had a ten year old computer and I got files off the computer from 1998 intact. Shows how much isn't deleted. It is so small it runs on a floppy Great!! Try this first.

I love these kind of apps - lightweight, simple, and incredibly useful. Everyone should have this utility sitting on your desktop, USB drive, or somewhere handy. Come the day when you wipe a file from the recycle bin by accident, use Restoration to get it back (hopefully). Thanks to the author for a wonderful tool.

Won't scan a thumbdrive?

Although it works great "from" a thumbdrive to scan any other drive, I could not get it to scan the thumbdrive without getting an error. I'm using a new 4 gig cruzer sandisk drive. Maybe its not supposed to recover from a thumbdrive, but it would sure be nice if it would. It seemed like it started but maybe the file transfer was too slow causing it to error?... only a guess. Thumbdrives are very popular now... we really need that support too.

I lost all the pics on my camera's memory card. With this program, I got all of them back. Warning: As with any recovery program, do NOT write to the source that you want to recover from prior to recovery. I.E. don't take more pictures after formatting you camera's memory card if you want to recover those images.

I think this app is excellent. I accidentally deleted all my email from the past 10 years from my computer so this app was a God-send. It is very easy to use (point it to the drive where the file was and it will look for it). And it works like a charm. Only thing about the interface that I didn't love was that I could only restore one file at a time. I would have loved to be able to select all the files I want to restore and hit one button. (Maybe you can do this and I used it wrong, I dunno.) But that aside, the result was fantastic! I got everything back as if nothing happened. I also got to have a peak of what used to live on my hard-drive - so may be this is a handy app for spouses with suspicions ;) Thanks Brian, you made my day!

I have compared restoration to other similar programs and they all fell short to restore. I was able to restore pictures that were previously deleted by other so called strong delete programs. yet when i deleted it with restore. it was totally gone. I'm not saying this is the best one out there but from what i have come across, as far as freeware goes - i give it the proverbial 2 thumbs up!

I deleted a 50+mb directory, it found every directory and all jpg's and vid files. It even told me the location and how big the file was. When you 'undelete' the file, it makes you think everything will be undeleted and working again. Think again! This piece of software is limpware, it is rubbish! No file was useable and when it did undelete a directory, even though it says it contains files etc. It doesn't. This would have to be one of the worst freeware titles I have used to date. Just because you can see what you deleted, doesn't mean you can recover it! Keep away from it and find something better.

I tried an experiment and deleted some music files. I used the program and tried to recover the songs and it apparently did so, but when I went to play them back, they were all screwed up. It was just garbled up noise. Beeps and screeching and not one of the songs was recovered in a playable state. In other words, it is useless! If it can't even recover a song, how can you try to recover anything else. Sorry, but this is crap!

I had a piece of mal-ware delete several directories, taking several hundred files. This program found and recovered a vast majority of them where a commercial undelete utility couldn't do the job. The only files I was unable to recover were a few mp3s that were corrupted after the recovery. (Fortunately, I still have the CD's to make new mp3s of those songs)

This program saved my mp3 and picture collections after i accidentally deleted them. i highly recommend using this program. It's a little intimidating at first but thats because it's actually really simple to use and doesn't bombard the user with useless features. Just get your files hasslefree. Also a note to those complaining about not being able to select multiple files, just look for the root directory of the files you want and restore it.

With only a couple tries I managed to get them all off of my camera after deleting them last night. I never think programs are going to work and usually I'm right. But, thank goodness this one did!

I tried about a dozen undelete programs over a period of 3 hours tonight. I accidentally deleted a 13 MB zip file that I thought was a duplicate, but in fact was my ONLY copy! Although most of the other programs told me the file could be restored, none of them would actually restore it unless I purchased the full version. The only OTHER free product did not find my file. But "Restoration" saved the day and recovered my file flawlessly and instantly (some other products were much slower). I'm super pleased with this product and this company!

[Facts:] I spent hours on download websites and P2P programs, but everything was huge and charged big dollars. This program really is free, easy, small, and effective. The interface isn't refined, but it gets the job done. [Story:] I downloaded another program that allowed me to restore 1 meg of files. I used Restoration for everything it could restore, and for what it couldn't I tried the other program. Although the other program had great graphics and would have charged $100/gig, it couldn't do any better than Restoration. What a life saver Restoration was.

I found this program extremely helpful and quite fast. But there are some features missing, like multiple file select (so that you don't have to click a few hundred times to restore up a few hundred files). I found a solution for this though; use this: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/macromaker.html . With this program you can automate the filecopy-process.

I was surprised that 2 year old product is better than todays products (mainly not freeware), but it is reality. I can recommend it.

In response to the reviewer who said they couldn't restore multiple files, you can do this, as long as the files are in the same folder. Only problem with this was that there were viruses in the folder of deleted stuff I recovered, but Norton caught them immediately. After recovering the folder, I was able to simply delete all the unwanted files, and keep the ones that should have never been deleted in the first place.

Simply wonderful!
- Interface: 5
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
1) "Restoration.exe" will allow highlighting only one deleted item (file or folder/directory) at a time for restoration. If files and/or folders to be restored were within a deleted folder, restoring that folder alone will also restore all the files and subfolders within it in one simple operation. Therefore, restoring the higher level folder(s) will speed the recovery of many files. 2) Windows 98 and ME OS: If copying/extracting "Restoration.exe", "DLL32.dll" and "DLL16.dll" files to an active drive running under Windows 98 or ME OS the user may receive a "Can't find DLL32.dll or DLL16.dll file" error message. Restarting the system before running "Restoration.exe" may resolve this problem. ----- 3) Thank you, Brian, for making this simple to use tool available at no charge. Your generosity is greatly admired.

This file recovery software is not only free, but functional. It allows searching by partial file name, which speeds up the recovery process. I can download and install it in another PC on a company network and run it over the network to recover the deleted files in another PC. Well done!

This is the only freeware file recovery tool that is small enough to fit on a floppy disk, requires no install, and really works. And the best of all it is freeware.

I accidentally deleted a very important file, so I jumped out to the web and did a search. I did not choose programs from companies like Executive Software, because they all want you to buy it before you can actually do anything useful with it. I'm happy to pay for software, but I need help now! This utility turned out to be free and does work. I hope the author sees this and drops me a line, because I am happy to pay him for his work!

It works, but usability could be improved

Biggest issues: 1. Can't select multiple files; must do one at a time. It's then at least a 4-click process for each file: Select, click Restor Button, Save file name, then click Yes to warning dialog about restoring onto same drive. Sheesh! 2. Can't select a default restore-to folder, or specify that restores should be to original location. If I accidentally deleted 200 files, why would I want to be prompted for this each time? 3. If I've just restored a file and yet search for the same filespec again, I'll still find it! No attempt is made to have the program recognize that the file is no longer deleted. Other than that, though, the program works. Even on NTFS volumes in XP. And it's free, too. So, I can't really complain, can I? But of course, I do: EVERYONE's a critic, right? As long as we say this afterwards: thank you!
