Microsoft: Tool for Windows 10 restores deleted files

Microsoft has released its own data recovery program. With the Windows File Recovery deleted documents and files can be retrieved. The tool is developed entirely as a command line program and is therefore more suitable for advanced users or those who want to read something beforehand. The tool can be used in Microsoft Store downloaded become. A Microsoft account is therefore required to use it.

File recovery can recover data from one drive and then copy it to another drive. According to Microsoft, it is not possible to restore data from the source drive to an identical target drive. Therefore, users should have a removable disk such as an SD card or a USB stick ready if they only use one partition on one drive.

Copy from one drive to the other

For example, the command line command winfr C: E: / n folder is used to restore files from the folder directory on drive C and copy them to a new folder on drive E. The software always creates a new folder that follows the naming scheme Recovery_Datum_Uhrzeit. This can also be applied to Windows-specific user folders, such as documents, downloads or pictures. All files of a certain file type can also be found and restored using the software. These can be zip archives or Mp3 pieces of music.

In addition to the NTFS file systems used in Windows 10, file recovery should also be compatible with FAT, Exfat and Refs. These are particularly common for removable media. The tool restores files such as jpeg images, PDFs, png, mpeg video, mp3, mp4, documents, zip archives and others.

File recovery should work if, for example, documents in the recycle bin have been deleted. Since only the indexes in the search table of the file system are deleted on the data carrier, but not the files themselves, in many cases these are still available. This also applies in some cases when hard disks can no longer be addressed by the operating system or only to a limited extent. In some cases, that doesn’t help either Data recovery service – like Golem.de visited it – becomes necessary.
