Hi there! We apologize for any confusion around that. Disk Drill Basic gives you all the functions of data protection and scanning so that you can see which files can be recovered by the premium version. Disk Drill Basic for Windows allows free recovery of 500MB of your file(s) (total size). If you're experiencing any issues with this, please email us at help@cleverfiles.com for further assistance.
The scan feature is nice and it didn't take toooo long to scan an entire 2TB drive and find all my files but you need to mention in the video that recovery over 500mb is a paid feature. Don't just leave that out. I can't criticize anyone for charging for software but be up front.

Hi i have a question. I accidentally deleted a partition and i tried to make a new volume out of it again because i thought it would recover the files but it did not. Thats why i deleted the partition again to run some data recovery on the unallocated part, I used EaseUs program but the partition it recovered is the partition that was deleted the second time and not yhe first and original partition, which basically doesnt contain my files. Can u answer this. And also, i did not put any file in it yet to avoid overwriting
Hi there! Sorry to hear about that. The only way to verify your files recoverability is to download Disk Drill Basic, run the scan, and preview the file(s) in question. If you managed to preview the file you needed to recover in a basic version, please email us at help@cleverfiles.com for further assistance. No preview just means that the file might be damaged or corrupt, it can be recovered, but it might need to be repaired.
I was reinstalling windows 10 from a usb, when it came to instal it on a partition, i deleted the partitions from my hard drive. Disk management says its unallocated. I cant store snything on there. Any solutions?
If you wish to use that partition for new information, just create a new partition there and format it. In case you wish to recover information that was stored there before, try Disk Drill.

I need data recovery in my deleted external hard drive during partitions data transfer from Windows computer to Apple MacBook that 4 TB WD Elements 25A3 Media HD that showed only 34 GB space with unknown folders, I don’t see any of my files. Also, How to Fix External Hard Drive Not Showing Up because of Partition Issues of my 4 TB external hard drive? What is your Recovery Cost Estimate? Are you charging if you couldn’t recover? A guy who transferred data from Windows computer to MacBook and erased via my HD wrote: “I did partition the drive before the process and I specified to the computer where on the drive I wanted to use but it was erased completely”. “no only the partition scheme was changed so it won't appear. download on the Mac app store the remote desktop client app from Apple”. And 2 technicians who tried to recover wrote: “So I've ran the scan 3 times. Unfortunately it looks like when the drive was formatted they used a secure format which intentionally erases old data. There are some files that I'm able to recover but it's nothing like what you were describing. It's like 20 picture, 20 documents and some other assorted files”

I recently switched to windows using bootcamp and I love it only thing is I added to little space so I created a partition so I can add more space by deleting it through bootcamp and accidently miskicked and deleted almost a terabyte of space and don't know how to recover it (haven't watched video yet)
(I’m surprised you responded) The file might be to big to just bring back and act like nothing happened so what I’m doing is something I never thought of before I reset boot camp into my computer (MacOS) and when I see the apple and hear the noise I will hold command + r and it will scan the web. After that (a few minor details happen during that like it connects to internet and then it loads for 5 years) I will open device manager (or console or what ever it is I used windows for to long to remember what it’s called) and recover the disc. I hope this works and if it doesn’t I can just restart the computer again and try disc drill
If this doesn’t work my parents will either kill me later when they find out or kill me now when they find out because I told them and they will either not let me use the computer ever again or allow me to use the computer when monitored and they will send it to a tech place to fix it or allow me to use it and they say fix it on your own.

Saw u replying and helping everyone as much as u can first of all thanks for that really appreciated. Coming to the point, I accidentally installed a utility 'ventoy' on my external hdd. It not only formatted the whole disk but also changed its file system to exFAT. In panic, I again formatted the disk to NTFS (previous one). I had a well organized 1TB of data in it. I still didn't stored any data on it as it will overwrite the old data. Can u plz tell how to recover the complete data with the file structure and names like as it was organised before..? It will be very helpful..
Most likely you won't be able to recover the file structure, as it gets overwritten when you format a drive. You can still recover the files through. Please, scan you drive with the free version of Disk Drill to check.
@@dhavalmehta4673 Oh I forgot about this comment 😅 No, I didn't get it back like before.. I only got the data! Still my hdd is kept like that, for a hope if in future I somehow find a way out uk..
Most likely that's a hardware problem and software solutions like Disk Drill won't help you. We recommend you take your drive to a local Data Recovery Center so that technicians there can assist you.
Hi there, when you recover your files, it's extremely important to select a destination different from the location where you lost the file to save the retrieved directory. Otherwise, the files may be overwritten.
yes it does work but regrettably I have overwritten D drive (first partition from my HDD) 😢 so recovering the files from this partition would be needing some luck, fortunately I have recovered some from it
i have a 12tb drive that i want to scan fully and the quick scan was showing 7500+ hours to complete. is that realistic or is there anyway to do that in a reasonable time? like 4gb would take a long time at this rate so is there anyway to do it quicker? 7500hrs is not really okay lol. 1.6hrs per gigabyte is normal?
The scan duration depends on many factors, including your Drive size and health, as well as your computer performance. If your Hard Drive has a hardware malfunction, including bad sectors, then this might be the reason Disk Drill is taking longer than expected to complete the scan.
Yes, you can scan those file systems on Windows. However, we would recommend to do that on a Mac, since the Mac version of Disk Drill comes with additional scanning procedures for HFS and APFS.
@@cleverfiles I have all my files !! I think.. amazing software BTW, it should have mentioned that it would even rebuild dir structure when scan was done!
omg my drive is 4tb and data on it is nearly 2-3 tb scared of how long will it take to scan especially if my drive has bad sectors :( as of now it's taking time around 10 hrs 30 mins with same constant time even after 30 mins passed .. its coming back to 10 hrs 30 mins.. looks like it will take forever
So. There are some files still missing. But, after I pressed recover all, the files that was sent to another location, they were missing. I pressed preview, i saw the preview, but then, I cant find them. Names are changed (of course) but I went through many folders, and I dont see them. And then I also got like 1.81 TB of partition. So I guess I have to deep scan this? (thats the only option I got for this) And if I press those 3 dots, I can scan for lost data. Question is, what do I do from here?
I noticed how some of the items seemed to have the original names. I'm currently trying out a "trial" version on a external hard drive that is having issues, but its only showing things as what types of files they are and organizing as such. (Example: mp40001.mp4 inside "mp4" folder, which is inside "video" folder) im curious if I did something wrong to get such results.

Hey Enrich I lost my Partition data (drive E and drive D) from disk cleanup during installation of window 10.? Please help Because I lost my Research work.😔

I cloned my hard drive that had windows 10 on it -> over to a 240GB SSD. i did this so it has a faster boot up at the start. and i noticed that there was another drive in the computer that was labeled something like (F: Recovery) and it has 11.0GBs used out of 12. so i kept thinking to myself.. i want to delete this so i can get more GBs space on my SSD. so i downloaded a software in order to view my drives and delete that. and the F:Recovery drive didn’t permanently go away. it just went down to barely a GB of space. so i traded to see if i could merge it to my SSD .. and it didn’t work so i just left it there. Now i tried to shut off my computer and it refused to turn off. it just went to main menu again. so i turned it off by clicking my power supply switch. and now windows and my OS will not boot up. it gives me an error with a black screen saying (install a boot device and restart the computer). and nothing is working. even when i go into the BIOS to select the boot priority between my harddrive and SSD. what do i do?? please help me. i will pay you
If you're not sure you can do it yourself using data recovery software, it is best to take your drive to a local Data Recovery Center so that professionals there can help you out.
And conveniently left out that to scan a 2TB HDD takes not just a few hours, but 8 or so, dunno I was at work when it completed. Then of course the bombshell. £86 to actually save any more than 500MB. It did find my files, but all my files are needed. Nice program, but seriously too much

I lost all my important data which I really want to recover. Can you help??
Please, scan your drive with the free version of Disk Drill to check which data can be recovered.

Saw u replying and helping everyone as much as u can first of all thanks for that really appreciated.
Coming to the point, I accidentally installed a utility 'ventoy' on my external hdd. It not only formatted the whole disk but also changed its file system to exFAT. In panic, I again formatted the disk to NTFS (previous one). I had a well organized 1TB of data in it. I still didn't stored any data on it as it will overwrite the old data.
Can u plz tell how to recover the complete data with the file structure and names like as it was organised before..? It will be very helpful..
Most likely you won't be able to recover the file structure, as it gets overwritten when you format a drive. You can still recover the files through. Please, scan you drive with the free version of Disk Drill to check.
did you got it back like same ?
@@dhavalmehta4673 Oh I forgot about this comment 😅
No, I didn't get it back like before.. I only got the data!
Still my hdd is kept like that, for a hope if in future I somehow find a way out uk..
@@cleverfiles btw thanks to you for your help 😊
My WD hardrive is not recognized by my pc anymore. The partition is not there for the app as well. What should I do?
Most likely that's a hardware problem and software solutions like Disk Drill won't help you. We recommend you take your drive to a local Data Recovery Center so that technicians there can assist you.
I dont have any hard drive, so are u saying i can never save the recovered data to it, really?
Hi there, when you recover your files, it's extremely important to select a destination different from the location where you lost the file to save the retrieved directory. Otherwise, the files may be overwritten.
yes it does work
but regrettably I have overwritten D drive (first partition from my HDD) 😢
so recovering the files from this partition would be needing some luck, fortunately I have recovered some from it
i have a 12tb drive that i want to scan fully and the quick scan was showing 7500+ hours to complete. is that realistic or is there anyway to do that in a reasonable time? like 4gb would take a long time at this rate so is there anyway to do it quicker? 7500hrs is not really okay lol. 1.6hrs per gigabyte is normal?
The scan duration depends on many factors, including your Drive size and health, as well as your computer performance. If your Hard Drive has a hardware malfunction, including bad sectors, then this might be the reason Disk Drill is taking longer than expected to complete the scan.
Does this read apple partitions, like HFS/+ ? or imgs? from windows OR osx ?
Yes, you can scan those file systems on Windows. However, we would recommend to do that on a Mac, since the Mac version of Disk Drill comes with additional scanning procedures for HFS and APFS.
@@cleverfiles ill try it there then!
@@cleverfiles its going, usb now sloww, I need to grab newer sectors these files are like 10 years old lol, is there a log of bad blocks or skipped ?
@@cleverfiles I have all my files !! I think.. amazing software BTW, it should have mentioned that it would even rebuild dir structure when scan was done!
This was the only thing I could find that would gracefully handle many bad sectors on a failing drive and keep scanning!
omg my drive is 4tb and data on it is nearly 2-3 tb scared of how long will it take to scan especially if my drive has bad sectors :( as of now it's taking time around 10 hrs 30 mins with same constant time even after 30 mins passed .. its coming back to 10 hrs 30 mins.. looks like it will take forever
Data recovery is a long process and may even take days. Everything depends on your drive size and condition.
it didn't recover the file that I need. is there anyway it can be recovered?
Please contact us at help@cleverfiles.com for further assistance.
So. There are some files still missing. But, after I pressed recover all, the files that was sent to another location, they were missing.
I pressed preview, i saw the preview, but then, I cant find them.
Names are changed (of course) but I went through many folders, and I dont see them.
And then I also got like 1.81 TB of partition. So I guess I have to deep scan this? (thats the only option I got for this)
And if I press those 3 dots, I can scan for lost data.
Question is, what do I do from here?
Please, contact us at help@cleverfiles.com for further assistance.
What if DiskDrill doesn't see the hard drive you've plugged in and trying to recover?
Is this drive detected by the system? Can you see it in Device Manager/Disk Utility?
@@cleverfiles No, it doesn't show up there either. Only when going into the terminal.
I noticed how some of the items seemed to have the original names. I'm currently trying out a "trial" version on a external hard drive that is having issues, but its only showing things as what types of files they are and organizing as such. (Example: mp40001.mp4 inside "mp4" folder, which is inside "video" folder) im curious if I did something wrong to get such results.
Hi there! Sorry to hear about that. The only way to verify your files recoverability is to download Disk Drill Basic, run the scan, and preview the file(s) in question. If you managed to preview the file you needed to recover in a basic version, please email us at help@cleverfiles.com for further assistance. No preview just means that the file might be damaged or corrupt, it can be recovered, but it might need to be repaired.
If this fails should I accept I lost my files for good?
Not necessarily. You may take your drive to a local Data Recovery Center for professional assistance.
i dont know what the hell happened but my 1000Gb disk storage just gone. reduced to atoms. nothing has brought it back this is sad

I had a hard drive from 2006 that gave me problems and so I cloned it. The data is aprox. 8gb is there a way to restore from a cloned drive ? The cloned drive is a dmg for Mac. Also the drive won’t mount.
Yes, you can restore files from disk images. Please, scan your .dmg file with the free version of Disk Drill to see if it can find your lost files.
Hello,
I have two questions which are quite technical:
- Is it possible to recover a disk in Raid 5 when one of the partitions has been erased?
And,
- Is it possible to rebuild a Raid 5 on 2 discs after formatting?
Thank you
Denis

Hi andy, I cleared my hard drive’s volume today and in a panic i made a new volume, is it still possible to recover everything?
It depends. Please, scan your drive with the free version of Disk Drill to check.

I cloned my hard drive that had windows 10 on it -> over to a 240GB SSD. i did this so it has a faster boot up at the start. and i noticed that there was another drive in the computer that was labeled something like (F: Recovery) and it has 11.0GBs used out of 12. so i kept thinking to myself.. i want to delete this so i can get more GBs space on my SSD. so i downloaded a software in order to view my drives and delete that. and the F:Recovery drive didn’t permanently go away. it just went down to barely a GB of space. so i traded to see if i could merge it to my SSD .. and it didn’t work so i just left it there.
Now i tried to shut off my computer and it refused to turn off. it just went to main menu again. so i turned it off by clicking my power supply switch. and now windows and my OS will not boot up. it gives me an error with a black screen saying (install a boot device and restart the computer). and nothing is working. even when i go into the BIOS to select the boot priority between my harddrive and SSD.
what do i do?? please help me. i will pay you
If you're not sure you can do it yourself using data recovery software, it is best to take your drive to a local Data Recovery Center so that professionals there can help you out.
funny enough I recently had a bsod so if u still need help i dont mind helping
thank you bro!!!!!!😊
Any free software to recover partition
And conveniently left out that to scan a 2TB HDD takes not just a few hours, but 8 or so, dunno I was at work when it completed. Then of course the bombshell. £86 to actually save any more than 500MB. It did find my files, but all my files are needed. Nice program, but seriously too much
Data recovery is a paid feature. With the free version you can only identify recoverable files and it does take time.
thanks for not mentioning I have to pay for that software if I want to recover files.

Can this scan a deleted drive like local disk d?
Yes, you should be able to restore data from a deleted logical drive, but you'll need to scan the whole physical drive in Disk Drill.

Your video is not titled how to recover a deleted partition using premium software. Who do we see about getting our free copy of Disk Drill
We offer a free recovery of up to 500 MB of your data if you use Disk Drill for Windows. Unfortunately, this option is not available for Mac users at this time.
We do guarantee the recovery of the files you can fully preview in the free version.
Fyi this is not a free service, you can only recover up to 500mb for free and then you need to pay at least $80 to recover anything more. I accidentally formatted 11gb of storage and just want to recover these one time 😭

why didnt you tell us they sell it
You really think that software developers work for free?
Nope but just mistakenly format my particition
And am not having that kind of money
Disk Drill is a commercial product and data recovery is a paid feature. With the free version you can only identify recoverable files.

Will Disk Drill recover RAW Photo Files?
Disk Drill does support recovering that file format. In order to make sure it will work for you, please scan your drive with the free version of Disk Drill to check.

this is not a real backup solution you can't restore from an image to have full system backup
Disk Drill is a data recovery software and it wasn't designed for restoring images to disks. However, you can use the created backup image with any other utility providing that functionality.
DISK DRILL IS $80 - THIS IS JUST AN AD
This tutorial is for informational purposes and showcases Disk Drill, an app that can recover up to 500MB for free. Feel free to use any tool of your choice.
I cant do any of these I'm stuck in boot

great job, thank you so much
I paid for Disk drill because they scan showed the files, I could see the pictues and I thought they would be recovered, however when I press recover, it just says there's a problem with the files and weren't recovered. What can I do?
Btw, I have like 200 GB data. I accidentally reset it in a different computer. I'm trying to recover it in the computer I did, shall I try on my own computer?

I had this same issue before. It can be frustrating. Thanks to this guy I meet online who gave me all necessary guide in resolving it. Xsolve.1 is his handle on 1G. Contact today if you still suffer this
This software is probably the worst paid recovery tool on the market I have been dealing with.
You should state that it's NOT FREE

Can relocate the recovered file after 2 day from disk drill to hhd

o my god thank youu
You're welcome!
It's work
Wasted time to download and scan the drive, just to found out that only 500mb of data is to be recovered unless you upgrade to pro and pay $89 for 1 month subs.👎👎👎
Disk Drill is not a subscription, and the license is perpetual. And yes, you'd need a paid license if you want to remove more than 500MB on Windows.
This is a paid program!
Its an example! You can you a software of your choice!
