Saving the recovered videos

Saving videos in the *.avi container format

UFS Explorer Video Recovery automatically packs the recordings obtained via a scan into the universal *.avi delivery format supported by conventional media players. Meanwhile, every piece of data placed in the container fully corresponds to the information found on the source storage.

Having selected the files you need in the interface of Explorer, you can start their copying straight away, without any prior transformations. For this, get the "Save all selection" tool from the main toolbar.

Having decided on the method of saving the restored video data, provide a safe destination folder for it in the opened dialog. Please ensure that this folder is located on a storage device connected to the local computer and accessible by the OS, but not on the one from which the files are being retrieved. Also, check whether the target storage has sufficient free space for this amount of information. After that, press the "Select" button.

Following this, the process of copying to the selected storage will begin. Its state will be presented in a dedicated pane at the bottom of the Explorer tab. The records will include the path to a file being processed, the time when copying was launched, its progress and the size of data that remains.
