Restored Deleted Files
Restore Deleted Files
The reason why I chose to rank this software above all the others is because of the partial file recovery mode. During my last year of college my best friend Kristina was working on her history thesis about two weeks before it was due. She accidentally deleted her thesis along with over 3000 photos. She called herself deleting old drafts when in fact she had deleted over 30 pages worth of new research and about three months worth of historical photos. You can imagine the type of panic that she was in. She came to my dorm room with her laptop in one hand and a box of Kleenex in her other, she had been crying all night. Doubtful of whether or not I could help her I download the software to see if it could recover anything and within in a matter of minutes I was Kristina’s hero. I was able to recover about 95% of her data. I was missing some of her photos and about two pages from her thesis but other than that I was able to recover everything for her. Needless to say I was in Kristina’s graces for the rest of college and enjoyed many of her fine dorm-room cuisines!
