Condusiv Undelete 11 Professional: instant file recovery with up-to-the-minute protection

Professional File Protection & Data Recovery

If you have valuable data on your computer, you need to remember that accidents can occur at any time and you are liable to lose many important files. In fact, as much as 65% of data loss is caused by accidental deletions.  This will cause unwanted frustration and money and time trying to recover or recreate them. For example; You may accidentally lose irreplaceable files or photos from your PC or the dreaded loss of that video of your child’s first steps.

Undelete is used as a first line of defense before backup since Undelete provides true continuous data protection for easy recovery of individual files. Lost files can easily and quickly be recovered without going to backup media. You will not need for support call from IT department.

Whereas snapshots and backups are ideal to recover entire lost data sets, Undelete is tailored for quick recovery of single files that are lost or overwritten. In addition, it will protect the files you want and the data you don’t want to get into the wrong hands. You will enjoy complete file protection, instant file recovery and a sophisticated electronic file shredder to erase sensitive files you want to be gone forever.

You can even roll-back to earlier saved-over Microsoft Office, Photoshop, PDF and more files with just a few clicks of the mouse.

How to use Undelete 11:



Undelete Features:



Recovery Bin:

The Recovery Bin catches all files no matter how they were deleted, allowing instant recovery with just a few clicks of the mouse. The Recovery Bin mimics the directory structure of your disk and includes a powerful search function, making it easy to find and recover files. Undelete adjusts the Recovery Bin to your volume’s available space, automatically protecting more files when free space is available and less data when it is not.
Thanks to this feature, the deleted files aren’t really deleted; they’re simply moved to the bin and held there until the bin is "emptied" or purged. This allows you to recover files easily after they have been deleted.



Let’s ask what are the differences between the undelete recovery bin and the windows recycle bin?

The Recovery Bin feature is similar to the Windows Recycle Bin. The following Differences exist:

Recover files deleted by any method, including Windows Explorer and other applications

Recovery Bin for any individual disk volumes on your computer,

You can use a single, "common" Recovery Bin for all your disk volumes

Recovery Bin use on Cloud Storage services such as Microsoft OneDrive

Deleted files are moved into the Recovery Bin and displayed similar to Windows Explorer.

You see and recover deleted files or folders as easily as browsing for "normal" files.



Secure Delete Electronic File Shredder

This built-in tool allows to overwrite files that are purged from the recovery bin with random data. This is done using a methodology developed for the National Security Agency. This popular feature provides the ability to securely delete files immediately (as they are deleted). This along with the Wipe Free Space functionality that overwrites a volume's free space, which may contain past remnants of confidential data provides a complete solution of erasing secure data.

The Global Settings tab contains SecureDelete options that affect all Recovery Bins on the system:

SecureDelete all files immediately: Immediately SecureDelete all files in all Recovery Bins. Please take care as this action is not reversible. Once the cycle has completed, even the Search feature will not be able to recover files.

Enable Recovery Bin SecureDelete on purge to securely overwrite files as they deleted from individual volumes. When this option is enabled, all individual Recovery Bins will be set to SecureDelete files from their volumes. It can be disabled as needed on individual Recovery Bins. This is easily done using the check box of "SecureDelete files on this drive" under each Drive Volume tab.

If you enable both options, you can permanent erase any file deleted on the selected drive volume. The deleted file will not appear in the Recovery Bin or in the free space of the disk.

Emergency Undelete:

The program has a very useful built in tool called “Emergency Undelete”. This feature lets you easily recovers files, photos, videos, movies, music and more in seconds. You can quickly restore all your lost files, even those deleted from the Windows Recycle Bin. Accidentally deleting a file doesn’t mean it has to be lost forever. The space the file was using is simply marked as being available for re-use. If nothing needs that space after deletion, the data is still there and the file can be recovered. Emergency Undelete instantly recovers files with just a few clicks of the mouse.

Recover Your Data

Whether you delete a file from your PC, flash drive, external hard drive, camera or other storage device, your files are recoverable, as long as you have not already overwritten the files. So, if you delete a file from your computer accidentally, it is very important that you immediately stop all activity so as to not overwrite the file. Just the act of looking for a solution to recover a file could result in the file being overwritten. When you surf the internet your web browser creates what is called a cache. It stores graphics, web pages, etc. which could occupy the space of the file you are trying to find a solution to recover.

Wipe Free Space:





This feature helps to securely erase free space so remnants of data cannot be recovered. It can be completed automatically or manually. You can manually start Wipe Free Space for a given volume No need to wait for the next automatic cycle to start. The process is very easy. Simply; click the Wipe Free Space ribbon icon under the Tools menu then select a volume from the drop-down menu, and Undelete will begin wiping the free space of the selected volume immediately. You can check the status of any current or past Wipe Free Space job.

Settings:

Global Settings (apply to all Recovery Bins): Individual Recovery Bins versus a Common Recovery Bin; SecureDelete all files immediately; Recovery Bins; sizing rules for Recovery Bins; the saving of deleted zero length files; Recovery Bin Virus Protection; SecureDelete on purge for Recovery Bins; "Confirm each delete from the Recovery Bin" warning.
