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.

A truly great product! 5 stars by psmith440586 Apr 23, 2012
I don't normally post comments or reviews but I'm so delighted because recently my laptop needed to be reformatted due to an e-virus and consequently lost about 2 months of pictures! When I discovered my SD card files (about 350 pics) had been accidentally deleted (including recent Birthday shots!!), I was not impressed, but after downloading this genuinely free and easy to use software, not only did I recover the 350 pics but nearly all of the previous 2 months and much more. DELIGHTED!! I have seen OTHER file recovery software suppliers claim to offer free downloads, but when the pics are recovered and staring at you on the screen, the message appears requiring payment for the software before you can get the pics!! I am pleased you genuinely offer a quality free product!! Thank you. showShow review details

Excellent - couldn't be better or simpler. 5 stars by tim.fenelon544 Jan 28, 2012
Use 7 zip which is available here to open the downloaded program. In 4 minutes, this program recovered 3 gigs of accidentally deleted video files from a sd card (one file only was corrupted and may have been like this initially). The file names were recovered intact (but not the folder name and that is no inconvenience). Thank you Recuva team. showShow review details
