DiskDigger Description

Simple, straightforward, and easy to use data recovery utility

DiskDigger can recover files from any type of media that your computer can read. This includes USB flash drives, memory cards (SD, CompactFlash, Memory Stick, etc), and of course your hard drive. The types of files that it recovers includes photos, videos, music, documents, and other formats.

DiskDigger works by thoroughly scanning each sector of your media for traces of files. This has some advantages and disadvantages (read on to find out).

You may find DiskDigger useful if:

* you deleted one or more photos from a memory card by accident, and want them restored.
* you deleted one or more photos from a memory card on purpose, but now want them restored.
* you deleted some documents from your USB flash drive, and want to recover them.
* you came across an old hard drive of yours (or someone else's) that's been reformatted, and would like to see what its previous contents were.
* you're just curious about what old deleted photos (or other files) are still present on your memory cards.

DiskDigger is also a work in progress. This means that new features will be added very frequently, including support for more file formats, more configuration options, etc., so check back for updates.

What isn't DiskDigger?

DiskDigger is not an "undelete" utility per se. Well, it kind of is, but isn't. An "undelete" utility scans through the file system on your disk and looks for file records that have been marked deleted, and allow you to bring them back.

DiskDigger, on the other hand, brute-forces its way through your media, scanning it thoroughly for any trace of files that can be recovered. I don't mean "brute-force" in any malicious way; this simply refers to the fact that DiskDigger reads every single sector of data, and scans it for traces of various file types. In this sense, DiskDigger is advantageous over an undelete utility because DiskDigger goes underneath the file system.

DiskDigger is not a "repair" utility. It cannot repair a broken memory card or disk. DiskDigger is a strictly "read-only" tool, and never changes the contents of the media you scan. It will, of course, scan unformatted (or badly formatted) media, but it won't attempt to fix the formatting of the media.

Features:

* DiskDigger scans for many different types of files, including photos, videos, music files, and documents, and displays what it finds as it scans in real time.
* You can preview most of the files found by DiskDigger without having to save them to a different location first. More than that, you can preview files while DiskDigger continues scanning!
* DiskDigger scans any type of media that is readable by your computer, including USB flash drives, memory cards (SD, CompactFlash, Memory Stick, etc), and your hard drive(s). Also, it is completely independent of the type of file system that's present in your media. The program bypasses the file system and reads the raw data chunks (sectors) to recover data.
* DiskDigger can even recover fragments of some files, like partially overwritten photos or other images.
* DiskDigger does everything in memory, meaning that it never writes any temporary files to your disk or other media (unless you choose to save files that it recovers).
* Since DiskDigger is a completely self-contained program, it leaves no trace on the computer where it is run. It does not save any settings to the registry. There is nothing to "install," and the entire program is a single executable file.
