    Recuva only searches for deleted files. TestDisk supports more tools.

    It's not 'free' that's BS; it's a TRIAL, without any benefits of actually recovering! You need a category for SCAMWARE.

    Testdisk = partition recovery. Recuva can't do anything with deleted partitions

    I have recovered data from my USB drive which was accidentally damaged by diskpart /clean command. File and folder structure was retained to another drive after the recovery. Its free for personal use. I give it a 10/10 score.
