Odboso FileRetrieval is a small software application specialized in recovering deleted or lost documents, archives, photos, emails, videos, and songs. The program works with all Windows file systems including FAT 12/16/32, NTFS and NTFS5.

You can rely on a wizard-like approach for setting up the recovery process. This mode is suitable especially for less experienced users because they only need to follow the built-in steps in order to complete the task.

You are given the freedom to select the target storage device (it can be a hard drive disk or a physical drive) and filter the results by file extension.

Odboso FileRetrieval gives you the possibility to work with a multitude of file formats, such as DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, PPT, PPTX, VSD, PST, BMP, JPG, PSD, TIF, AVI, 3GP, MOV, MP4, WAV, ZIP, RAR, and HTML.

The time needed to finish a scan process depends on the size of the disk. The deep scan method can be used for scanning your system thoroughly for deleted data. The utility eats up CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer may be hampered.

Odboso FileRetrieval builds up an Explorer-like panel with the recovered folders and files, and allows you to check out details about each item, such as filename, size, type, modification date, as well as recovery status.

What’s more, you can preview the images directly in the main panel, work with a built-in HEX viewer, perform searches throughout the entire list with scan results, as well as get file properties.

You can make the application scan directory structure (for FAT), disable the file preview mode for items bigger than a custom value, and restore files from deleted partitions.

All things considered, Odboso FileRetrieval provides a straightforward solution for helping you retrieve and preview deleted data. The intuitive layout makes it suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
