When we speak of wanting to recover files from hard drive devices which have broken we are usually concerned because we have attempted to access that drive and failed. Computer internal drives fail for two specific reasons. The first is that the computer’s hardware has suffered a physical malady. These problems include motors burning out and control boards overheating. While a physical crash of an internal disk was fairly common 10 years ago, today it is almost unheard of. When a hard disk fails today it is usually due to what is called a logic crash. A logic crash occurs when important information needed to instruct the drive has become damaged. This information both controls the physical operation of the hard drive as well as directs the drive to the exact location of needed data.
When operating system files have been damaged and as a consequence are no longer working the solution is to reload those files by means of reloading the entire computer OS. Unfortunately when we reload Windows we also reformat and erase the contents of a hard disk. Obviously before we reload Windows we must recover any items of value from the PC. But if Windows will not let us enter the system and if reloading Windows erases the files, what can we do? The solution is to use FileFinder. Our software will start your PC even if your current version of Windows has failed. The application runs from a CD/DVD and your computer’s microprocessor. FileFinder never loads on to your computer’s hard disk. Once loaded FileFinder will however give you complete access to all of the files on your PC. You’ll be enabled to copy all of those files to safe external storage.
