How to Recover Deleted Files With Recover My Files v3.9.8.5966

Recover My Files can find and restore files that you may have accidentally deleted.

The Recover My Files application can salvage files that have been emptied from the recycle bin. In more extreme cases, you can also recover all the files from a damaged hard drive or a computer with a corrupted operating system. The application searches for files at the lowest disk level. This is possible because when files are deleted, the data remains on the disk and just the pointer to the file is removed. Recover My Files can restore any file that has not already been overwritten on the hard drive with other data.

Instructions

1. Select "Recover Files" from the splash screen that loads when you open Recover My Files and then click the "Next" button.

2. Click on the hard drive you want to search and click "Next."

3. Mark the check boxes next to the file types that you wish to search for and click the "Start" button.

4. Navigate through the list of recovered folders to the location where your deleted files were stored on the "Folder" tab or search for the files on the "Find" tab.

5. Choose the files you want to recover from the "Preview" tab.

6. Click the "Save Files" menu button and select a location to restore the files.

Tips & Warnings

• You can sort and filter the recovered file list by date or file type using the different tabs in the recovery screen.

• If you are trying to recover large numbers of files or files from a corrupted/crashed hard drive, be sure to save your recovered files to a different location. Saving the files to the hard drive you want to search could overwrite the data and make your files unrecoverable.
