MiniTool Power Data Recovery will help you recover your most important data from your hard drive, partition, or opendrive in case of disaster, whether it is human, natural, malicious attack, computer error, or a serious hard drive failure. You will be able to rescue any type of file, even your browser histories. It features a very intuitive interface, from which we will choose the disk, Pendrive, or partition we want to apply the application to. Once the files are obtained, they can be copied to different destination units. MiniTool Power Data Recovery can also fix, if possible, the boot of a problematic disk. MiniTool Power Data Recovery works miracles, and even dares to attempt to recover data from scratched CDs or DVDs. The interface is very clean and intuitive, although you need to have some basic knowledge when handling it, such as knowing what a disk, volume, or partition is. It works on Windows and Mac. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about MiniTool Power Data Recovery? Do not make the mistake of installing MiniTool Power Data Recovery on the drive from which you want to recover your data, as installing it could occupy the hard drive sectors where the data that was accidentally deleted might be. Both the personal and business versions of the program, in my opinion, are excessively expensive. There are free open-source alternatives that are just as powerful, although not as intuitive or fast as the one offered by MiniTool Power Data Recovery. In any case, a free version is offered that allows you to recover files smaller than one gigabyte without paying for a license, which is much more generous than other commercial alternatives that are more limited in their trial version. There is no version for Linux. Another somewhat annoying disadvantage is that while it is in use, the recovery screen cannot be minimized, and it takes quite a long time to finish. It does not allow partial scans. It must be applied to the entire volume. Another thing I didn't like at all is that it does not include the Spanish language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering MiniTool Power Data Recovery: It is a very useful tool for trying to recover files from accidental deletion. Ideally, you should have it installed on the disk before the disaster occurs, or you could lose data if you do it afterwards. The free version is limited to recovering files as long as you don't exceed one gigabyte. The paid version is somewhat expensive. But the program is very powerful and effective. Perhaps the investment is worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is MiniTool Power Data Recovery solving and how is that benefiting you? It has solved one or two problems for us with hard drives or USB drives of the center's staff, and almost always we have managed to recover almost 100% of the data and files that were urgently needed. It is very easy to use, and people with little computer knowledge use it without any problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
