It seems like a regular day. You boot your computer only to learn it’s acting wonky. Perhaps you cannot access files you saved recently or you can’t get to files at all. When this happens, you need to do an HDD file recovery. Here’s a closer look at what it is, what causes your hard drive to fail, and when you might need to get professional help.

When Do I Need HDD File Recovery?

File recovery is where you restore your system to its previous configurations, according to Techopedia. Why would you do this? Because it could help your computer recover from a temporary failure.

Temporary failures can be the result of many things from software crashing to accidental deletion. To demonstrate, say you were sweeping junk off your computer and by accident you deleted a critical document. Doing a system restore will bring the computer back to a point where you can access the file again, provided it wasn’t corrupted in the first place.

There are many ways to recover files, this isn’t one of them.

How Do I Recover HDD Files?

There are several ways you can go about this. The easiest would be to use the free data recovery software offered by SALVAGEDATA. We have two versions, one for Windows and one for Apple devices.

With each, you’ll have the ability to recover files or deleted data from your hard drive. The software accomplishes this by using an advanced user interface and fast scanning of damaged partitions to offer you a complete solution.

Moreover, its superior user interface design means even if you believe you are not computer savvy, you’ll be able to use this tool with confidence. Simply, download the software, follow the instructions, and you could have your files back in no time.

Another option available is to recover the files manually. To do this, you would need to connect the hard drive to another computer to access and repair the files. However, this could end up being a much more involved process if your hard drive has physical damage since you would have to repair that first.

Ultimately, unless you have the tools and expertise to do the HDD file recovery manually, it might be best to use the software or receive professional help.

When Should I Go to Professionals?

Using the example above, if your computer’s hard drive has physical damage or you cannot access files remotely when connecting the hard drive with another computer, it is best to have a professional examine it for you.

Luckily, our team at SALVAGEDATA will help. Using state-of-the-art tools and drawing from the expertise of some of the top minds in the field, we can examine your hard drive then provide solutions. You’ll receive this analysis free of charge so you know how to best proceed from there.
