Recuva is a great free file recovery software utility that allows you to quickly and easily scan and recover documents and photos from your hard drive. File recovery can often pull deleted data from the drive as long as the data has not been overwritten. In most cases, recently deleted photos and documents can be recovered with only a few mouse clicks. Recuva does a great job of finding and reporting the integrity of the data. Green lights next to the document mean there is an excellent chance the data can be recovered and a red light means too much of it is gone to save.
The key to recovering data with this free utility is to stop using the computer when you know you have lost a file. The more you use the PC, the more the hard drive will use the space where the deleted files have been placed.
