file recovery

Hi Does any member no of a good fast recovery tool? I just accidentally deleted some avi [genuine] files from an external drive.

Recuva

Used it & others. What I recovered are no longer classed as avi files by some programs. I have tried to convert these files to avi but no luck.

There`s a good list here Best PC hard drive recovery tools powerdatarecovery sounds like a pretty good app.

The paid for programs are probably going to be better in this category, good luck with it Stuart.

The worst ennemy of file recovery, paid or not, free or “professionnal”, is time:
the more you still use your computer, the less are your chances to recover whatever.

It’s an external drive so only used when trying to recover files. Thumbs up to minitool recovered 90%.
