Q.
Although I have formatted my computer's hard drive several times, was wondering if there is any data-recovery application that can recover some of files that were lost a few years ago.
A.
Modern data-recovery applications can work miracles compared to their counterparts of yesteryear, but no program that can guarantee complete data recovery. Also, once data has physically been overwritten on a hard drive, it is generally not possible to recover or undelete it. Unfortunately, there is no set timeframe for this process. As a matter of fact, the sooner the undeletion is attempted, the greater the chances are of accurate recovery. There isn't much you can do to recover data lost several years ago. As long as you're sure that your data has not been overwritten, try the commercial Recover My Files (www.recovermyfiles.com). It can effortlessly recover data on formatted hard drives. R-Studio is an excellent alternative which works seamlessly on several platforms, from Windows 98 to Vista, and is Linux- and Mac-compatible too.
