PC Inspector File Recovery Editor's Review

From computer geniuses to casual users, we’re all familiar with that terrible predicament where we’ve struggled in vain to retrieve deleted data and erased files.
In such circumstances, you need a piece of reliable and effective software which will quickly locate and recover lost files from the recycle bin and damaged drives. Consequently the PC Inspector File Recovery 4.0 may be just what you’re looking for.

What is it and what does it do?

When you first delete a file, all your doing is scratching out the entry in the file system index and not the actual file itself. It will still exist on your hard drive for a period of time until your computer decides to overwrite it for good because it needs the extra space. Therefore, if you possess the right software it is a walk in the park to “unerase” deleted files. What is so great about PC Inspector File Recovery 4.0 is that it can read from FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS file systems (all Windows Operating Systems) and the interface is very easy to use. The application simply scans the drives where your deleted files are and the program will tell you if there is still enough data available to completely recover the file. All the necessary information about the files, such as their size, date modified, MFT (Master File Table) entry, condition and type are all presented in columns, and for advanced users their is the option to view the files in text or hexadecimal mode so they can quantify what’s missing or has been deleted.

Pro's: Unlike a lot of its competition products, this app supports a wide range of disk formats.

Con's: It’s not a miracle worker and some files may be beyond recovery.

Conclusion: This is the best program of its kind we have yet seen. If you delete a file, this small but powerful piece of software will restore it for you in next to no time.
