Overview
UFS Explorer Standard Recovery is a universal data recovery solution for most widespread cases of data loss. The software offers direct access to non-damaged file systems of Windows, Linux and macOS, allows reconstructing corrupted ones and easily retrieves lost and deleted data from various storages, including internal and portable hard disks, USB flash drives, memory cards, virtual machines and disk images. Among technologies supported by the program are Windows Dynamic Disks, Apple Software RAID, Linux LVM, VMware, Hyper-V, VirtualBox, QEMU, XEN, etc. Thanks to the advanced scanning techniques, the utility is able to thoroughly examine the storage for lost and deleted files and recovers them with maximum efficiency. Still, operating in a safe read-only mode, the program doesn’t make any modifications to the affected digital medium. Moreover, the application enables the user to specify parameters as to storage reading and create a disk image with the possibility to define read timeout, block size, etc. as well as rules for the omission of damaged sectors.
UFS Explorer Standard Recovery is wrapped in a user-friendly interface with clear guidance for each step of data recovery. Furthermore, a range of helpful options and tools will make it easy to conduct any complex operation.

How to recover data with UFS Explorer Standard 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. ufsxsci.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. Right-click the storage to browse through available intact files and folders. Left-click the storage and 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.

All UFS Explorer products are offered as shareware. Therefore, one can try out the program before purchasing a license.
It’s strongly recommended to use the trial version and evaluate the results of recovery before ordering a license.

Key features






When to use UFS Explorer Standard Recovery

The utility effectively works with various linear storage devices formatted in Windows, Linux and macOS, 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 Standard 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.

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.

UFS Explorer Standard Recovery is capable of recovering data lost from an undetected partition. The program includes means for finding lost partitions or defining them manually before scanning the storage for lost and deleted files.

The application gives the possibility to recover data from storages that have damaged sectors or other hardware issues with maximum efficiency. Not only it offers highly configurable disk reading and imaging procedures but also generates and saves a map of bad blocks during the imaging process.
We're always delighted to receive feedback from our customers and welcome any suggestions for improving the quality of the UFS Explorer software.
