    Never really needed it (r-studio never failed me when I did) but any time I have tried to recover files deleted moments before, it never found them. Practically worthless from my experience.

    I have been using this for a while, and it has never failed me. However, this version is not working to recover anything on a simple sd card. I don't know why.

    It worked great at the first go but when I looked at the file nothing was there. and has failed to recover my pictures for the flash disc.

    Probably one of the best freeware undelete tools available. Very simple and easy to use for recovering deleted files.

    But for recovering lost files/partitions, I'd recommend TestDisk, and for damaged files/drive, I recommend GetDataBack.

    @Zoroaster: The slim version doesn't include the toolbar but still requires one to install the program, while the portable version doesn't require any installation.
