"File
data recovery software designed to recover lost files
including video, documents and archives from Hard Disks and
CDRom and lost pictures (thus, its 'Photo Recovery' name)
from digital camera memory. PhotoRec ignores the filesystem
and goes after the underlying data, so it will still work
even if your media's filesystem has been severely damaged or
re-formatted.
PhotoRec is free, this open source
multi-platform application is distributed under GNU Public
License. PhotoRec is a companion program to
TestDisk,
an app for recovering lost partitions on a wide variety of
filesystems and making non-bootable disks bootable again.
You can download them from this
link.
For more safety, PhotoRec
uses read-only access to handle the drive or memory support
you are about to recover lost data from. Important: As soon
as a pic or file is accidentally deleted, or you discover
any missing, do NOT save any more pics or files to that
memory device or hard disk drive; otherwise you may
overwrite your lost data. This means that even using
PhotoRec, you must not choose to write the recovered files
to the same partition they were stored on."
