Comment - Currently cannot show or undelete deleted NTFS files.Please note: Honestly the commercial software and services is the route you will sometimes have to take to recover your data. That's not to discount the high number of high quality data recovery freeware generously given away. On those occasions that the freeware doesn't work, the software in these pages will not be worth the time and effort and this can be frustrating. Unfortunately I can't make that judgment for you, at least at the moment. I'm afraid I have to leave you to make the call from the descriptions and my comments.

displayed on the pages should lead you to the standard commercial software and services available for the problem you are having. For software always be sure to try the demos first to see if the program works before buying. Also the difference in prices for software that does the same thing, for instance recovering PowerPoint Presentations, can be a large price range like in this case $50 - 299. If possible, try several software solutions before buying. For services, be sure there is a no data, no fee guarantee, and a recovered file preview available.
