This option is useful for those cases in which the directories are used to organize the files. We can also make use of the option “ Retrieve directory structure”, which in addition to recover deleted files, it will attempt to recover the directories that contain the files. “ Scan not deleted files” option, is useful for recovering data from hard drives that have been formatted or have suffered any kind of damage. This option increases scan duration, but also increases the chances of finding a greater number of deleted files. Like the previous option, this allows us to perform a scan for deleted items more quickly.ĭespite its simplicity, the program has settings that allow us to make an advanced use of the data recovery process.įor example, we can check “ Deep Scan” option to make an intensive search for deleted files. The wizard also have the option to choose the location in which we want to search for deleted files: in “ My Documents”, in Recycle Bin, removable drives, CD/DVD, or in specific directory.
