A short review of Disk Drill for Windows

Disk Drill is an excellent data recovery software that works with all popular file systems, including NTFC, FAT32, ExFAT and many others. This tool allows you to recover and restore erased files not only from hard disks and USB drives, but also from SD cards, workstations, digital cameras, and more.

Disk Drill sd card recovery software comes with a free data protection of your files. Just download the software and install it from the link, and you can restore files if you accidentally delete them.

A feature in Disk Drill called ‘Recovery Vault Protection’ automatically protects your files against deletion by creating hidden backups, so you can always restore them in a matter of seconds. Choose a folder to protect, or files to exclude from the protection. Then Disk Drill will recover the files if you need them.

But if you don’t want to enable auto backups, there are two standard ways to scan for lost files. Quick Scan is a good option if you have just deleted the files, while the Deep Scan takes longer to scan your system for deleted files. Then you need to select the files to recover, choose folder and tap ‘Recover’.

In addition to restoring files from hard discs, SD cards and other external devices, with Disk Drill you can backup a volume into a recoverable disk image. Tap ‘Extras’ and select ‘Backup’.

Disk Drill Basic allows you to recover 500 MB for free, while the Pro version enables unlimited recovery and some extra features like Lost Partition search. Overall, this is a very practical tool that can save you many troubles and countless hours.
