DATA Recovery

[paradisiac]

i have used ontack easy recovery before, but my version does not work on win7. is there anything that people would recommend for getting files/folders that have either been deleted/formatted, or on a corrupt hard drive?

thanks.

i got getdataback and that has done it in about 3-4hours so im well happy now.

i have found some are better than other. easy recovery is rubbish if you have formatted as it will not give the files their original name, will just dump all of each file type in a folder and name it 1, 2, 3 etc. so you would have a jpg folder, with all your jpgs (including any from temp internet files) named 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg.......so not ideal for things like outlook.
getdataback seems to find the original file structure and put it back in the original folders etc, but i have only used it once so not sure how good it is at finding things.
