Partially worked for me
Due to my own mistakes, I unknowingly formatted and re-partitioned the hard drive. Worse than that, I tried to recover the lost partition with my Linux OS and failed after attempting to write back to the drive. Worse than that, I re-installed windows OS for which formatting and partitioning were mandatory (It was one mistake after another. Some of the mistakes I had to make; others of course could've been avoided). Luckily, most of the important files were stored in a separate partition than the OS; therefore my mistakes weren't fatal. This software takes time and RAM to scan large drives (1TB in my case ~ 7 hours, RAM usage was constantly above 8GB). Although it seemed that all files were recovered, I had to use the RAW data recovered by the tool because the ones with the correct path/directory/name were completely corrupted. In the end, I only managed to find the most import files. I didn't have time to go through millions of files with name as such 00084098.docx. But this software indeed performed its task very well. I'd say it's definitely worth $50 I paid for. I myself is a software developer of 8 years and I would like encourage Wondershare Recoverit development to continue their efforts and make the software more powerful and efficient. Sincerely, Peng
