What is GetDataBack?
GetDataBack, for FAT or NTFS drive and partitions, will recover your data if the hard drive's partition table, boot record, FAT/MFT or root directory are lost or damaged, data was lost due to a virus attack, the drive was formatted, fdisk has been run, a power failure has caused a system crash, files were lost due to a software failure, files were accidentally deleted. GetDataBack can even recover your data when the drive is no longer recognized by Windows. It can likewise be used even if all directory information - not just the root directory- is missing.
Recover your files when the data is no longer accessible due to formatting, fdisk, virus attack, power or software failure. Get everything back even when the drives partition table, boot record, Master File Table or root directory is lost or corrupt.

The best recovery software I've used in many times Simple desaign and pretty straightforward Recovery almost 100% of your data Excellent app
Fantastic bit of software. I bought this something like 8 years ago when there was 3 seperate versions (Simple, FAT, NTFS), each with a seperate key. Since they have rolled it all into one I was assuming I'd have to rebuy but they accepted the one of the old keys and I was using the newest version. As far as lifetime licenses go this one is amazing, super cheap for software that really does the job. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is that updates are not often. Latest version is from 8 months previous from the date of posting this.
GetDataBack is expensive but works really well. There are no compromises -- this is a high quality product. Of the competition, Recuva took 13 hours but found only 66000 of the 475000 files on my failed 2TB HDD, most of the filenames were missing, and there was no directory structure. TestDisk only worked on its 'deep scan' setting, very slow -- I estimated would take 2 to 3 months to complete. GetDataBack delivered all files, with almost all filenames intact, and all file structure present, in about 10 hours. You can look into the files before you buy a license (which will let you copy them out). Actually, for text files, you can 'select all' and copy out without a license. But you need the license to save other filetypes. You can copy entire folders with subfolders and files all at once. Overall, it was super easy to use -- a one-click setup. GDB was expensive, but it was as good as taking the disk to a data recovery specialist. And anyway, if this was a car repair, I'd just fork out the cash without hesitation.
Slightly more complex with its options, but is far more thorough than its competition, I have on multiple occasions recovered data from re-partitioned/formatted drives, it can rebuild partitions when others simply give up. I've gone through many free alternatives and they barely make an effort to find lost files. You get what you pay for, that is the down side, it is a bit expensive, but it gets the job done.
Shows full paths, folders names and files names - not as others!
My flash drive up and quit on me, so I've been trying different data recovery applications.
GetDataback did a good, thorough scan to find lost info, but wouldn't allow me to actually recover anything without a licensed, paid account.
No thanks.
