Software that helps you retrieve lost files

If you have formatted your computer, either because it was running slow, or because you upgraded your Windows operating system, you may have lost files you didn’t back up. If that is the case, the Aid File Recovery software may help you recover some of your lost files. This includes photos, videos, documents and music. It is able to recover files from hard drives, USB drives, SD cards and mobile devices.

It even works if you have reinstalled your operating system

Let’s say you formatted your device, and then you installed a new or pre-existing operating system, there is still a chance that the Aid File Recovery software may find your files. It may even be able to recover files after a hard drive crash. The software is also able to recover files from your recycling bin even after you have emptied the bin. The user interface looks a little under developed, but that is probably because the developers spent more time on the functions rather than its appearance.

Suitable for people that use external hard drives

The Aid File Recovery software is not perfect, but if you have tried other recovery systems and they have not worked, then it may be worth giving this system a try. It may be helpful for people that use external hard drives and have lost data because they disconnected without ejecting first. The fact it is able to pull files from an SD card is also rather special.
