I downloaded this utility which recovers files. Can somebody explain me why it recovers only few files? I didn't got the answer at PC as many members were sleeping in the forum
When a file is deleted it still physically exists in the hard disk but the operating system is free to use that space for other purposes, if need be. So if you perform any file create/copy/move operations the deleted data may get overwritten and hence rendered unrecoverable.
A software solution cannot guarantee 100% recovery rate. Once the deleted data is overwritten, its lost forever. If you delete a file by mistake and want to recover it, make sure you don't perform any copy/paste operations in that drive. Also, run the recovery software immediately or the deleted data might get overwritten by the swap file(system file used by windows).
