How to recover data with UFS Explorer Professional Recovery
To install the program, download the installation file. Make sure that your computer meets the minimum technical requirements before running the file. If installation does not start automatically, browse the Downloads folder for the program setup file, the name of which usually contains the name of the software, e.g. ufsxpci.exe. Open the file with Administrator privileges or enter the administrator password, in case you are an ordinary user of PC. Start the installation by following the prompts.
NEVER download or install the software on the storage (drive, flash drive, RAID, etc.) you have lost data from. This can result in permanent data loss leaving no chances for its recovery. In case of data loss from a system partition, it is highly recommended to shut down the system and consider using UFS Explorer Emergency Recovery CD.
After launching the program, you will see the navigation tree on the left side of the tab where all detected storages will be shown together with partitions, disk images and complex storages (RAID). You can either choose the needed storage from this top-level structure or use the Open button on the upper panel. In case you don’t see the needed storage, press the Refresh button to reset the tree of the attached storages. Double-click the storage to browse through available files and folders or press the Start scan button to proceed to data recovery.
To find lost and deleted files, the application will scan the chosen storage, which may take a while, depending on the amount of data stored and working speed. The scan settings include the option of choosing a file system or several file systems in which the lost data was created and enabling the IntelliRAW technology for data recovery by known content. When everything is set, press Start scan. For more convenience, the scanning process can be paused so that the intermediate results could be evaluated. When the scan is over, it's strongly recommended to save the scan result project for further work.
The scan results include all found files and folders that can be recovered. The simple interface allows users to preview the recovered files before saving them to make sure that the results are satisfying their needs. Users can browse and save the needed recovered files just like in an original file system.
NEVER save the recovered files to the storage they were recovered from. The file data (contents) is still read from the source drive; this means the software may overwrite file contents making recovery impossible. Use another storage to save the recovered data.
Try its effectiveness now:All UFS Explorer products are created as shareware. Therefore, one can try the program before purchasing a license for it.
It’s strongly recommended to test the trial version and evaluate the results of recovery.

Key features
When to use UFS Explorer Professional Recovery
The utility effectively works with various linear storage devices, including internal as well as external hard disk drives, USB flash drives, memory cards and many others, thus serving as an essential data recovery tool for handling most typical cases of data loss, like accidental deletion of files, storage formatting, malware attack, hardware or software malfunction, etc.
UFS Explorer Professional Recovery is an efficient solution for restoring data from RAID of different complexity, both software and hardware, and various RAID-based storages, like NAS. Moreover, the software supports custom RAID configurations and makes it possible to perform data recovery from Drobo devices which apply BeyondRAID as the primary storage technology.
The software is enhanced with a wide support of modern storage technologies employed in different environments, such as Apple Core Storage, LVM thin provisioning, Logical Disk Manager, MS Storage Spaces, etc. which significantly expands the list of target devices the program can be applied to.
The application is able to decrypt disk volumes for data recovery and data access purposes (if the encryption key is known). The list of supported methods includes LUKS, FileVault 2, BitLocker, encryption of Apple APFS volumes and eCryptFS.
The application gives the possibility to recover data from storages which contain damaged sectors with maximum efficiency by reading bad sectors maps generated by ACE Lab software. The user can analyze the information and get a report on files damage in the process of copying files. Both stand-alone storages and ones combined into a RAID system are supported. In addition, virtual bad blocks can be dynamically defined on disk images through recognition of a given pattern.
UFS Explorer Professional Recovery effectively deals with disk images and virtual disks created by major virtualization software, like VMware, Microsoft Hyper-V, VirtualBox, QEMU, XEN, etc. and successfully copes with data recovery from such storages as though they were ordinary physical devices.
The software is capable of imitating work of virtualization software and consequently provides access and restores files from multi-level virtual storages with no additional operations required. For example, the user can scan a virtual disk stored inside another virtual disk and promptly retrieve files that were lost or deleted from it.
A set of tools integrated in the software allow effectively solving practically any case of logical data loss, including the most severe ones. The program will either simply read file system metadata or conduct its detailed analysis and predict the allocation of files based on the file system specifics, allocation of other files or file content analysis to produce the best possible data recovery result.
