does not at all

I tried the latest version but could not get it to list any ext2 or ext3 file systems, either on internal hard drives or attached USB drives. Lost files were not found on a slightly damaged hard drive with ext3.

Tester12345 2007-02-24 13:23:29

OK with Synology NAS drive

Working good also with Synology NAS drive.

Hard drive recovery

This program would have been extremely useful for recovering any lost data on my Linuxext2 hard drive. I didn't have any lost data - just a Linux Ext2 hard drive that needed to be read by Windows.

The program took a long time to run (but the drive is 250gb) and it did find the folders on my hard drive so it worked really well.

I have already recommended this program to another Iomega network hard drive owner for when their storage goes south.

A life saver definitely!

Partition Formats

It's great, but if you could read all communly used partition formats for linux, that would help.

Othni 2007-06-04 11:24:11

Very useful

Although I could not recover the files I needed, because apparently the file system got corrupted, the program seems promising and it recognized other graphic files within the partition.

Michel Darras 2007-06-26 12:37:41

Lack options

It would be good to include an option "backup recovered files" to copy all the recovered files to some support.

alphaone 2007-07-28 15:23:34

Good Product

This Worked EXCELLENTLY with a failed system. The system happened to be a vhd running under
Microsoft Virtual Server. Recovery was 100%.

Ghuru 2007-08-22 13:16:14

Works even with bad sectors.

Had a harddrive with vital C code on it, but there was one or more bad sectors 1/4 from the start. The drive was not readable under Linux, could not even mount the ext2 filesystem! Used a simple usb-ide adapter to connect my drive to my Windows box, ran DiskInternals, found all my files, made a backup, perfect, took about 2h and it was done!

I LOVE this program!

I accidentally formatted my second hard drive and couldn't find a single program that didn't cost an arm and a leg to help get my data back. Then I found DiskInternals Linux Recovery. This program has gotten back more of my data than any other program I've tried, and I didn't think it would. I'm using Windows XP Pro. Most of the shareware programs wouldn't even see my drive. This one's a keeper! Oh, BTW, I was trying to install Ubuntu when this happened!

tried to recover files from an NTFS partion..

The web page I thought told me that I could use this tool to recover NTFS files off of a partition. But rather I think it is trying to say that I can recover Linux files ONTO an NTFS partition.

Sylvain 2007-10-27 14:30:22

From a french user.

Thank you very much.
your software was able to recover some files I accidentally deleted on a ext3 partition.
the features which allows to sort files by extension, or re-build the path trees, was so useful for me.

but :
- why to make an gui like windows explorer. Another, especially designed for this software, may be better.
- why is the software only available on windows, and not for linux. Ext3 is used by linux, and not windows. I must to reinstall windows to use it, and luckily I had a cd !
- this software has only recovered little files on my computer, like. Txt, or a little bigger files, like. Jpg. But musics and movies was not recovered, or just a very little piece (often, the five first seconds of a track).


thank you for this freeware.

reformated partitions

Hello, I think that your program is very nice, acctually the best I could find and the one that could find the most of my files. Unfortunatelly it could not recover data from my home directory which was the most important.

D P 2007-11-05 21:44:55

Unable to recover info!

My external usb 500GB drive had two partitions. The first was e2fs(400GB) with files on it and the second partition was fat32(100GB), also with files on it. After running this program, it found the fat32 partition but it did not recover the few files on it.
I don't believe this utility works on e2fs partitions.

Jbspine 2008-02-19 16:36:29

Epic fail.

Yeah, your software completely failed. It took 2 hours to scan the hdd then it just shuts down. I tried it twice (that's 4 hours if your keeping score at home).
It's already been uninstalled. Which was the only part of it that worked correctly (note: I haven't checked the registry yet)

Foremost found more

Diskinternals has a good GUI for getting at stuff. In the end, though, a GUI does only what it is programmed to do. If you're trying to fix something that's broken, often the simplest screwdriver is more powerful than the most advanced assembly robot; similarly, for my problem, simple command line tools proved more powerful than DiskInternals GUI. The key tool was foremost, though I also used find, unzip, and grep to figure out which recovered file was the one I needed.

Balu_jan2005 2008-05-08 12:09:32

Best software in this field.

Using this software I got data from Crashed HDD. But This trial version does not allow to Copy or Saving data. Just I displayes the data. But it is good one.
