I think that some time any user finds himself in the situation when some necessary information, files are deleted accidentally by himself or by a virus form hard or floppy disks. But even under such unfavorable circumstances not everything is gone. Handy Recovery gives you a chance to recover this important data.

Imagine that you’ve unintentionally deleted a useful file or your computer was undergone by a virus attack and as a result some important data is beyond the reach. What can be done in this situation?

The answer is simple: you should take advantage of the program Handy Recovery. This program is configured specially to help you to recover fortuitously deleted files.

I think that some time any user finds him-self in the situation when some necessary information, files are deleted accidentally by him-self or by a virus form hard or floppy disks. But even under such unfavorable circumstances not everything is gone. Handy Recovery gives you a chance to recover this important data.

So, what should be done to restore the lost file?

Having installed Handy Recovery, you’ll see simple and friendly interface, where, first of all, you should chose a demanded disk and the location of a lost file. Then, you’ll have to wait for some time, while the program is analyzing and estimating chances of successful recovery for a deleted file. If chances are small the file could be recovered only partially.

After selecting files and folders, that should be recovered, you click the "Recover" button on the toolbar. The "Recover" dialog box will show up and you chose between the options: “Restore folder structure”, “Recover all files”, “Recover alternative data streams”, depending on what you need.

In that way, after the aforecited procedure, you have a chance to take again your lost file.

Along with the above-mentioned functions there are some more important features in this program.

If you deleted a partition and even reallocated disk space for other partitions, you still can try to restore files that were on the deleted partition. Handy Recovery can find information about deleted partitions on the disk and will allow you to restore files from them. Then, all found partitions will be added to the list of existing drives. In general this feature is useful when you want to find some partitions, which were deleted some time ago and they are not coincide with any existing partitions.

And the last, but not least feature allows you to create disk images due to which you save all information contained on a drive including deleted files. Later you should just open the disk image and recover a lost file from it.

To sum everything up, I should say that personally me appreciated this program very much, because it really helped me to restore some important files, which I accidentally deleted from my floppy disk.

This is good software and I use it, but don't fool yourself-if you install the operating system on a failed disk then hope to recover lost files, you won't have much luck - it doesn't perform miracles.
