Many people use data recovery software to recover files lost on desktops, laptops, and other systems running Windows.

You may need to restore data from a corrupt device or undelete files on a hard disk drive (HDD). We can help with those issues and much more.  

SecureRecovery® for Windows is a quick, effective solution for data loss caused by logical errors. The software’s specialized algorithms can scan the device for recoverable data, address file corruption, and repair damaged partitions. The easy-to-use program is perfect for reversing straightforward cases of data loss and reducing downtime. It also has a demo and preview function so users know what to expect before buying a full license.         

This article explains how to restore lost data and undelete files with SecureRecovery® for Windows.  

Features

  • The software is compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Vista, and XP. 
  • It works with NTFS, exFAT, FAT32, and FAT16 file systems.
  • Recognizes common file types and binary images. 
  • Recovers data from HDDs, solid-state drives (SSDs), flash drives, and SD cards.
  • Requires administrator privilege and enough space to save recovered data.  

Use SecureRecovery® for Windows To Restore Deleted Files and More

Our experts developed SecureRecovery® for Windows to resolve common logical issues that lead to data loss. Before scanning, the tool assesses the condition of your storage and informs you if a software recovery is safe. We tailored its algorithms to locate and restore lost files across multiple device types. Supported media includes magnetic platters and NAND flash storage.

The software can recover data in each of the following instances

  • Deleted files or folders
  • Reformatted file system
  • Corrupted file system or metadata
  • Damaged partition table
  • Lost or inaccessible partition

Note: Due to TRIM commands, retrieving deleted data from an SSD is more complex than an HDD. TRIM is a feature in SSDs that allows Windows to manage blocks of data. This management involves wiping data from blocks that once stored deleted files. The design improves performance and prolongs the drive’s lifespan, but complicates SSD recovery unless TRIM was already disabled. For best results, run the software as soon as possible. 

Do not download the software to the device that contains lost data. Doing so could overwrite recoverable files. Install the program to a different drive or external device instead. Launch the software from that device.

Here’s a step-by-step guide for using SecureRecovery® for Windows.

Step 1: Install Software

As mentioned, do not download the program to the same drive as the one that encountered data loss.

Troubleshooting: Your computer might not recognize the desired device. This error could stem from a connection issue, software conflict, or other factor. Failing to detect the device does not always mean permanent data loss. You could enlist a professional data recovery service with tools that provide low-level access.

Step 4: Set Scan Options
