How to recover data using recover disc
1.First of all insert a CD/DVD Disc and analyze It
This program starts reading the content of inserted CD/DVD disc immediately after you run the program. It might take some time to read and analyze disc content. Then the program displays folder tree in the left pane of the window. You can browse the content of any folder right like you do in the Windows Explorer.
2.Then find desired files on the disc
You can browse the content of your CD/DVD right like you do in the Windows Explorer. When you select a folder in the left pane, you see its content in the right pane. Now you can select files and folders that you want to recover and get to the next step.
If you do not see required files on the disc, it may be that they were recorded in previous sessions and were not included in the table of contents of the last session on the disc. Sometimes this happens on multisession discs either intentionally or by mistake.Recover Disc allows viewing such files in a special Expert View mode. This mode shows the full disc structure with all recorded sessions and tracks. Click the "Expert View Expert button on the toolbar to switch to the Expert View mode.
3.Finally extract your desired files from the damaged disc
After you select files and folders that you want to recover, click the "Extract" button on the toolbar. The "Extract" dialog will be displayed.'Restore folder structure' If you check this option, the full branch of the folders tree containing selected files and folders will be recovered to the output folder.
If some disc appears to be partially unreadable with Recover Disc on your computer
, you can try to extract all available data from the disc and then read that disc on another system or with different CD/DVD reading device. The program allows reading a part of a file on one device and a part of the same file on another device. When you extract a file from a disc and some problem areas cannot be properly read, the corresponding places in the extracted file are left blank (filled with zeroes). When you later try to extract the same file, the program reads only the blocks that were not extracted before and merges them with the previously extracted data.
The following options let you specify what to do when the program finds file with the same name in the output folder.
* Merge: The program will merge the file being extracted with the existing one. Use this option to merge the newly extracted content with the previously saved data.
* Overwrite: The program will overwrite the existing file with a newly extracted one.
* Skip: The program will skip such files.
* Ask: Each time the program finds a file that already exists in the output folder, it will ask you what to do.
Select either "Overwrite", "Merge" or "Skip".You can check the "Apply to all" option if you want to apply the chosen action to other files as well. Then the program will perform the specified action automatically without asking you each time.After you specify all options in the "Extract" dialog, click "OK" to start the extraction process and you are done with it.It is very simple and easy to use for general users too.
