Early this year I’ve listed top 10 free data recovery software which can be used to recover data from accidental deletion. The reason I listed ten data recovery software instead of one is because not all can do its job properly. Let’s face it. Most freeware developers doesn’t put 100% of their hard work into it because they don’t get paid for doing that. The freeware that they created might be their interest which they create in their spare time or even a promotion to its shareware. So in my opinion, shareware is better than freeware MOST of the time but it has a price to pay.

Today I discovered a method to obtain PC Tools File Recovery genuine license key which normally cost $29.95 for free. You can get your free license now and have that software in your hand so you don’t have to panic and know what to do when you accidentally deleted important data from your hard drive.

PC Tools File Recover allows you to recover critically important documents, or other files, which have been lost by accidental deletion. These files may be lost by emptying the Recycle Bin, or using other deletion actions that bypass the Recycle Bin altogether. Such actions include Windows Shift-Delete, command line deletion, deleting excessively large files or using applications that delete files without the Recycle Bin.

When a file is deleted from the Recycle Bin, or if the recycle bin is bypassed altogether, the file can no longer be recovered by the Windows Operating system. The content of the file still remains on the drive, relatively intact, until the section of the drive it occupies is overwritten by another file. File Recover identifies the contents of such lost files on the hard drive and allows you to recover them. If a file has been partially overwritten, File Recover attempts to reconstruct as much of the file as possible with the remaining contents. This allows you to salvage at least part, if not all, of that recovered file to continue using it as required.

    That’s it! Only 4 simple steps to get the genuine license key for PC Tools File Recovery. One thing I really like about File Recover is it has built-in heuristic file type algorithms for recovering files of specific types (such as .avi, bmp, .cab, .jpg, .xml and etc..). There is one good and bad news about the promotion of PC Tools File Recover. Good news is you get to use a $29.95 data recovery software for free and the bad news is it only last up to 7th September 2008. Well, at least it is better than nothing… Perhaps I’ll find something new and even better before it expires.
