Recover Fixed/Floppy Disk - Directory/File level Data Recovery Utility for Hard Disk Drives and Floppy Disks

RECOVER Fixed/Floppy Disk handles File Allocation Table (FAT) damage and subfolder damage. If FAT damage should not affect you, just defragment the file system as often as you can. If subfolder damage should not affect you, save the subfolder to a safe location. This FREEWARE version would not save the Root Folder for later use.

RECOVER Fixed/Floppy Disk handles these error conditions at individual folder level.

Recovers all the files from the specified directory on 16-bit and 12-bit FAT file systems in DOS and WINDOWS even if both copies of the FAT have considerable number of damaged sectors, if the disk involved had been regularly defragmented. If FAT is good, FAT1 or FAT2 can be used.

All you need to do is put all your important files in a few directories (note: entire drives can be ZIPped up and sent to the backup drive) and defrag that backup drive after each update and if you want to be playful enough, note down the first sector of file(s) or if you want 100 percent safety, save the subdirectory having your important data as a file somewhere else.

IF YOU DEFRAG FLOPPY/HDD REGULARLY, YOU GET THE UTMOST BENEFIT.

Supports FAT12 File Systems (Floppies) from DOS to WINDOWS 98SE and FAT16 File Systems in DOS, WINDOWS 3.1/3.11, WINDOWS 95, and (up to 2 GB partitions in) WINDOWS 95-OSR2, WINDOWS 98 and WINDOWS 98SE (HDD can be 120 GB).

This program is certainly for those who backup because backup programs never talk about uncertainties w.r.t. FAT and Directory entries.
