Now let’s discuss in details the main features of O&O MediaRecovery:

Data Recovery:

The main function of the program is data recovery. It will help you to recover data from removable drives such as MP3 players, digital cameras, memory cards (e.g., SD, MMC, xD as well others), hard disks, and, of course, devices such as the Apple iPod.
Simply install O&O MediaRecovery on your computer and connect the storage volume on which you wish to recover data. The program has a built-in wizard which will guide you step by step through the recovery process. You will quickly regain access to your lost data in a few mouse clicks. No experience or skills is needed. Please remember that this feature needs the full registered version. The test version search only for the files you want to recover.

Supports the most popular and important multimedia formats

This will help you to get back photos, videos or music files in just about any format. Many formats are supported; for example JPEG, MPEG, MID, Apple Quicktime, Windows Media Player, TIFF or WAV
This feature will help to bring those valued memories back for you regardless of file format saved.

Preview function:

After completion of a scanning process, you can view the files that are capable of being restored. The preview function supports most picture formats, including JPEG, BMP, and TIF. If the preview is unavailable, the fil can still be restored This function make the file identification process easier.

Various search algorithms:

O&O MediaRecovery combines the powerful search processes of the hugely successful data recovery products O&O DiskRecovery and O&O UnErase. These search algorithms apply different technologies to locate data in nearly all scenarios, and can be used together or individually. The algorithm from O&O UnErase is best suited for quick data rescue. The algorithm from O&O DiskRecovery scans every sector of a volume for recognized file signatures and it can reconstruct data from them even when the entire content directory of the volume has been deleted or overwritten.

Integrated Data images:

Data images created by O&O DiskImage are also included in the data rescue processes. To prevent a data loss through defective hardware, a forensic image can be created using the separately available O&O DiskImage. This comprehensive image also saves the (assumed) free disk space so that a full data recovery can be carried out later without touching the original hardware.

Filter function:

This built-in feature helps to present the search results in a clear overview. Search results can be sorted by size or time (creation/last modified/last accessed). The filters can also blend out empty directories or files for refined search results.

What to do in the event of a data loss

First and most important, don’t panic. It is strongly recommended to immediately close all applications and avoid saving any more data. Every time data is written on any storage volume, especially temporary files from internet browsing, the chances increase that the data targeted for recovery will be permanently destroyed. Only files that have not been overwritten are capable of being accurately restored.

Second, take a minute to think and remember how was the data deleted? Is it still in the Recycle Bin and can be easily restored from there.

Finally, if your important photos, videos or songs were thoroughly deleted and you have no backup available with you then you will need to use a data recovery program such as O&O MediaRecovery. This software should be downloaded and installed on a different partition from the one where data needs to be recovered (for example, "D:" instead of "C :").

How to use O&O MediaRecovery for recovering data

The process is very easy. Simply install O&O MediaRecovery on your computer and connect the storage volume on which you wish to recover data. Start the program, follow the wizard dialogue which will guide you in a step by step way through the recovery process. I will summarize these steps with images

Start O&O MediaRecovery: you can start new data recovery or continue with a previously saved data rescue either using mediarecovery (in the form of DRD file) or diskimage.

Select the drive where you want to search for the deleted data: You can either select a partition (e.g.C: or D), many storage volumes (for example USB, digital camera and so on) or even the entire hard disk.

Start search: this step can take many hours depending on the disk size

[Image: 6yQIUXa.png]

Run scan: you can see detailed information on the progress of the search for deleted files (diskrecovery), for example current process, time remaining and so on

Select files to be restored; after the scanning is finished you will see a list of the files that can be recovered. On the left side, you will find folders divided into two groups unerase and diskrecovery, each one includes many folders. You can select any folder to view its contents on the left side.

You can preview any file, revise its properties (for example size) and filter the data you want to restore
