Operating Mareew Disk Recovery

Recovering Data from NTFS Partitions

In order to recover lost or deleted data, select a NTFS-formatted disk or partition. No changes are being made to the selected disk at this point.

As an alternative to scanning a disk directly, consider using a virtual partition. A virtual partition is a snapshot image of an actual hard disk. By performing data recovery operations on a virtual partition instead of the real disk, you are performing the safest recovery possible. Mount a virtual image of a hard drive or create a new virtual partition by using Map Virtual Partitions.

To mount an existing virtual partition: Help - Mount Image. To create a new virtual partition: right-click on a hard drive or partition and click Create Recovery Snapshot.

Scanning a disk can take a long time. The following window will provide progress information and list the number of discovered files.

All recoverable files are displayed in an Explorer-like window after the scanning is finished.

Lost and deleted files are market with a red "X". Click on a file to see a full-size preview. The preview works in both registered and free editions of Mareew Disk Recovery.

Mark files to recover with check boxes, and click Next to proceed.

Select a folder to save the recovered files to. It is highly recommended that you use a different disk or an external storage to store the recovered files.

To access recovered data, click the underlined link, then click Finish.
