There exits various reasons for recover data from a hard drive. Main reasons are simply accidental deletions of files or folders, wrong formatted hard drives or wrong partitioning. However, some bad sectors could be the reason that windows is unable to display the file system.
And last but not least, programs that are used for partitioning can brake during the process and damage the logical information on the hard drive.

It's relative easy to do a data recovery from your hard drive with our software. First the hard drive have to scan for relevant information. This will need 30 min / 100GB, if the hard drive is an internal device. After the scan the logical information are used to recalculate the file system which allows you to recover your data. Data recovery means to copy the recovered files to a second hard drive or partition. This needs approximately the same time as the the scan (30min/ 100 GB).
The spend time for the copy process will be reduced if your need only certain files.
Ok, let's start with the task 'Hard Drive Data Recovery':

1. Select on the start screen of Data LifeSaver Volume Recovery - Full Data Recovery - Partition Recognition - On Power Failure - On Formatted Drives
   
   
   
2. In the next screen, you will displayed now the recognized hard drives, which are possible to recover. Internal hard drives are marked as silver devices, external hard drives are marked as orange devices. In addition you can make a hard drive data recovery from a disk image file, which have to make first with our software.
   It is possible that the software shows you some drive letters at the hard drive icon. This should help you to identify the right hard drive for recovery.
   Now, double click the hard drive from which you want to recover the data. In our example we select the first hard drive.
   
   
   
   
3. To recover your data from the whole hard drive, choose now 'long scan'
   
   
   
   
   
4. Now, the hard drive will be scanned for file systems. This step can consume some hours, dependent on the size and the kind (internal,external) of the hard drive. Time for coffee...
   
   
5. If the calculation is finished, the files of the hard drive will be shown.
   To recover your data you have to select them by set little hooks certain files or folders. If you select the small hard disk icon at the root of the file system you will recover the whole partition.
   Select now 'Recover' in the main menu of the software to start the recovery process.
   
   Don't forget: you need space on a second drive to recover the files from original hard drive.
   
   
   
   
   
6. The quality of a file recovery could be very different depends on the kind of data loss. Check random sample files before buying a license. You can do this by double click the files and evaluate the file content. This is very easy for jpeg-pictures and more.
