![]() ![]() I accidentally deleted a lot of files from my computer - long story short I didn't realize that my business partner turned on iCloud, so when I cleared out "duplicate files" I in fact deleted the main files. Images aren't viewable and documents are uneditable.ĭisk Drill is like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown and then pulling it away at the last second. It teases by showing you a list of "recoverable" files, but the end result is a bunch of unusable files. To make matters even worse, they ridicule you by adding "the great news is that you can enjoy the amazing features of Disk Drill going forward."ĭisk Drill is essentially a ransomware scam. They will then add insult to injury by referring you to their Terms of Sale page. They will ask you to provide some technical information about your computer and that's when you find out Disk Drill is incapable of recovering deleted files from an SSD drive.ĭisk Drill will deny your request for a refund and instead lecture you about having not used their software correctly. You only learn this fact AFTER purchase.Ĭontacting technical support for help is a waste of time. This means Disk Drill is completely worthless for any modern computer system built within the last 5 years. What Disk Drill fails to inform you BEFORE purchasing is deleted files on an SSD drive are “probably not” recoverable. I purchased the Pro version of Disk Drill on after viewing a list of my deleted files with the Free version. NONE OF THE FILES WERE CORRUPTED, DISK DRILL PRO WASN’T ABLE TO DO IT. I can’t emphasize this enough: ALL THE DATA WAS RECOVERED USING OTHER RECOVERY SOFTWARE. => So that’s their standard when it comes down to recovering files. ![]() In our email correspondence, they literally stated that: Any recovery at all is considered a blinding success, as file recovery was often thought impossible. ![]() PLEASE reconsider buying Disk Drill Pro as you will be disappointed and left out in the dark with less cash… I’m just really displeased that they won’t acknowledge that the code in their software is lacking, and recovery is not on par with other, cheaper software. Note: You could be under the impression that I’m just promoting other software, but I’m not sponsored in any way. The MP4 files play as they should, no glitching, not freezing up! That’s when I came across EaseUS recovery software.Īnd it simply WORKED! I got all my jpeg’s and, more importantly, my MP4 files back… without being corrupted. Since I didn’t want to lose those valuable memories, I investigated further and searched for a different solution. There I was, ready to give up hope as Disk Drill didn’t recover any working MP4 files. (Even when using video recovery software: they showed a few frames and then froze or glitched…) Only to realize that ALL the MP4 files were corrupted and couldn’t play. There was no mention of them being corrupted anywhere on the application.)įull of hope, I bought the software (100€) and recovered everything to a separate SSD. (Which led me to believe they could read the content of the file. The JPEG showed a preview of the photo, and the MP4 files showed up as MP4 icons in the preview while being accompanied with tiny JPEG previews. I installed the (free) software, did a scan, and it showed a hopeful 84GB of recovery on my 64GB card.Īfter the scan, I saw it could recover JPEG’s as well as MP4 files. Searching the internet, I came across Disk Drill Pro. So, I went on vacation, took my new GoPro to document the trip, returned home, and saw that the SD-card crashed. They state that “Any recovery at all is considered a blinding success, as file recovery was often thought impossible.” => So that’s their standard when it comes down to recovering files. No refunds, even when going through the whole process of explaining everything to customer service (with logs, proof that other software did work, etc.). EaseUS is the software that saved (all) my precious MP4 files WITHOUT corrupting them. Don’t buy DiskDrill Pro: Recovery corrupted all the MP4 files from the GoPro Hero 10. I lost 100€ on this software that didn’t live up to its promise. Beware of the recovery capabilities of this software! ![]()
