Description of the Recuva program
The Rekuva utility was created by the British company Piriform Limited. Its main purpose is to give users the opportunity to recover lost data using a simple but powerful tool.
The program quickly scans any storage media - hard drives, external drives, USB drives, etc., and recovers all types of files: audio and video, office and electronic documents, digital photos in RAW format.
Working in FAT and NTFS file systems, the utility filters files by type, size, dates and names. Recuva recovers deleted hidden and system files, as well as files with zero size, regardless of the date of their deletion. Using the preview, the user himself determines the need for the file and, using additional options, selects the information display mode.
With the help of Rekuva, you can both restore lost information and permanently delete files from the disk (no program can restore them!). In turn, the utility is not able to recover data deleted using similar programs.
The program has a multilingual interface, including Russian and Ukrainian languages. The utility is simple; the user does not require special knowledge to work on data recovery.
The software takes up minimal disk space: the user can use the utility directly from removable media without installing it.
