💡 Note:

You can pause, stop the scan to recover data. However, we recommend you recover data till the scan is completed.

The trial version allows you to recover 200MB files for free, if you want to recover unlimited files, just enter a valid license code to upgrade to full version.

To prevent overwriting, you'd better NOT save the recovered files to the hard drive where you lose them.
