Pick a data recovery application that does more than basic undeletion
If you are dealing with a situation requiring purchase of a data recovery application, you may want to consider a newer software utility designed for this purpose that is capable of more than simple undelete of accidentally erased files. There are also available more powerful programs that can scan an entire personal working computer internal hard drive in just under an hour and create from that drive a list of all existing, deleted or damaged files. These newer programs can actually scan the raw file information and yield from that data entire files which are then cataloged according to file type and extension.
