iBoysoft Data Recovery is a data recovery program for Windows that helps when important files get deleted, lost or corrupted. It can restore deleted files, including files removed from an emptied Recycle Bin or with Shift+Delete, and recover data from formatted, corrupted, inaccessible, RAW or lost partitions. It also includes a Fix Drive feature that can turn a RAW drive back into a usable drive without data loss. What's really useful about it is that it can recover files from many types of storage devices, like internal hard drives, SSDs, USB flash drives, SD and CF memory cards, digital cameras and external drives too. It recognizes more than 1000 file formats, including Office documents, PDF files, photos, RAW camera images, videos and audio files, so it can help you get back photos and work files that seemed to be gone forever.

This application has 3 simple steps in order to recover anything you want. The first is selecting a recovery module (Data Recovery, RAW Drive Recovery or BitLocker Recovery) and the drive where the files were lost. Simply plug in your USB/external drive, or choose your internal one. Step two is scanning the drive. A quick scan takes a few minutes, while the optional deep scan finds more files but takes longer; a progress bar is shown on the screen until completion. The final step is to recover your files! iBoysoft shows a preview of the files it can recover and lets you choose where to save them, preferably on a different drive. You can also save a scan session and load it later. The simple user interface makes the process easy, and the program only reads from the source drive, so the lost data is not overwritten during scanning.

If you need to recover anything or are having corruption issues with your hard drives, iBoysoft Data Recovery is worth checking out. The free edition scans drives, previews the found files and recovers up to 1GB of data at no cost. If you want more, you have to buy the Basic or Professional edition, which removes the limit. The program supports Windows 11, 10, 8.1, 8, 7, Vista and XP as well as Windows Server 2003 to 2019, and a separate version is available for Mac. For BitLocker encrypted drives, you need the password or the 48-digit recovery key.

It quickly recovers files from internal and external drives, USB flash drives and memory cards, including formatted, RAW and corrupted ones.
