Restore your deleted files

Boasting an easy-to-navigate user interface, Restoration — developed by TELUS —  is a free tool for searching and restoring deleted files with a click of a button. As a bonus, the tool doesn’t come with intrusive ads, subscription offers, or paywalled features. 

Scans a disk drive

Restoration scans for deleted files by selecting a disk drive from the drop-down, with the option to type a part or whole file name or tick “Include used clusters by other files” and “Include even if the file is zero” to make specific searches.

Names, sizes, and locations of scanned deleted files are shown for your reference, and these files are restored by clicking the “Restore by Copying” button. Unfortunately, there’s a likelihood that your restored files may end up corrupted or refuse to open.

Risky to use

Overall, Restoration does what it needs to do without paywalled features. Able to search for deleted files via a file name or used clusters, you can restore any file in the blink of an eye. However, you should use this at your own risk due to file corruption.

  • Pros

Invaluable tool !. Wow. Simply wow. I unknowingly deleted patient files and cleared the recycle bin last week. This week, I was asked for 5 files that of course were gone. I ran Restoration and had each of these files back in under 4 minutes. This is easy to use and it saved my bacon. Pros: How simple it is to use.How quickly it scans the ex-database Cons: When describing save Restoration to a drive other than the one you're scanning, it might be helpful if you suggest using a USB stick. I called a tech buddy for clarification. *I'm not tech savy... but h-ly cow did this ever save my butt today! Thank you!

All you need for quick file recovery!. Don't mind the looks of this program, this tool is way better than any other commercial or donationware. It quickly finds and displays all files you erased, even still with original names. No ads, no demand for donations and what's most important - it doesn't use the disk it's installed on when you are running a recovery job on it! Pros: Superfast and 100% file recovery! Cons: Name one. Appearance doesn't count!

Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
