Undelete Plus Offers Free, Fast File Recovery

Undelete Plus

We've gone through a ton of "simple" file recovery apps at Download Squad, and not all of them perform as advertised. Some take a painfully long time to scan only to report few - if any - recoverable files, dashing our hopes of retrieving that funny lolcat we deleted by accident.

Undelete Plus, however, is a champion at what it does. It quickly completes its scan for potential targets, displays them in a detailed list that includes likelihood to be recovered, size, date created, and path, and even gives you a second pane with totals grouped by file type.

We tried the recovery on formats that typically gives these programs fits - images and video - and Undelete Plus recovered each one without issue. Granted, there are going to be times when it can't - no recovery app is perfect - but we were certainly impressed in our testing.

If you've accidentally wiped something important from your PC, do yourself a favor and download it. We guarantee that it will increase the likelihood that your spouse won't make you sleep on the couch because you trashed their favorite pic or song by 70%.

You bounce around picking up gems and talking to the denizens of 'Level Upland'. Eventually you feel tired and head back to ...
