Data Recovery Free

However,Recuva, PC Inspector, and TestDisk are full featured, freeware that I've found very useful.

Operating systems consider deleted files as just free space on the drive, so with any write operations to that partition or disk there is always the probability of loosing those files forever by overwriting them.

Any write operation can overwrite deleted files for good. So, don't write anything to data drive, don't run any disk utilities such as chkdsk and defragmenters, don't reboot computer - Windows can spawn chkdsk during start-up procedure.

It's not recommended to restore files or an image into the same partition. In case of recovering a physical drive you must recover and save the information to another physical hard drive.

Free data recovery software cannot help if you have mechanical problems with the disk drive. If the hard disk is no longer recognised by the BIOS or is making unusual noises, you will need to contact specialists.
