Data recovery software is usually useful if you install it before you lose data. Whenever you write to your hard disk, previously deleted data is overwritten. Normally Windows does not completely remove a file or folder when you delete it. Windows just removes the reference of that file, so it won't be visible anymore. Of course you can completely erase a file (secure erase), but if you do this you almost sure won't be able to recover it.
Recover My Files scans the disks you specify for deleted data. You can choose between fast and complete recovery. In addition, you can choose to recover files on you hard disk or to recover a formatted drive. It's also possible to select which types of files you want to search. The scan process runs separately, so you are able to see in real-time the files it finds.
The files found by the program are displayed either by folder, or by their type. The files that are in good condition can also be previewed. Extra information is usually available. The original file's size, the resolution of pictures, or the list of files from an archive is sometimes shown. Each file has a checkbox next to it, so you can choose which files you want to save. The recovered files can be saved to a folder on your hard disk or to a CD or DVD disc.
Pluses: Filtering the scan results is possible. You can filter the results depending on their filename, their size, or their date. Exporting the results to CSV format is also possible.
Drawbacks / flaws:
In conclusion: Recover My Files should be able to help you recover deleted or lost files.
