Thoughts on Puran File Recovery
Puran File Recovery has done a great job restoring lost files in the time that we’ve used the program. Here’s a look at how to scan hard drives for deleted files with Puran and what to do when you need to restore them. To start recovering deleted files, visit the download link at the bottom of this page. Click the green Download button to the right of the page to download the most recent version of Puran File Recovery. Run the setup file called PuranFileRecoverySetup.exe to begin the install process. No additional programs or toolbars are asked to be installed, which is fantastic. Once installed, run the program from the start menu or desktop shortcut. You’ll be asked to select your language each time you start the program unless you check the box that says Do not show this window again. To scan for deleted files, choose a drive from the list at the top. You’ll normally choose the system drive, usually C. Before continuing, you have the option of additional scan options like Deep Scan and Full Scan. These options scan the drive byte by byte (which takes longer to complete) to find even more deleted files than a regular scan. Regardless of additional options you choose, select any drive and then click the Scan button to begin. When the scan is complete, place a check next to any item you want to restore. Notice the condition to the right of each entry. If the condition is listed as Excellent, you’ll likely be able to recover the file without loss in quality or data. However, a Poor condition may not restore the file as it was in its original state (or at all). Then press the Recover button to decide how to restore the files. The first option called Just Recover will restore the file to any location you choose. Select the second option of Recover with Folder Structure to keep the folder path intact. This means if you are restoring a file from a folder called “C:\Files\Videos,” the restored file will be placed in a folder called “Files\Videos” wherever you choose on your computer. Either option will work for restoring files, so it actually doesn’t matter how you do it—it’s more of a personal preference. An easier way to view and restore files is to select Tree View at the bottom left of the Puran File Recovery program. This view shows the original path of the deleted files in an easy format. It looks as if you’re looking at actual files on your computer because you can browse through the folders and see exactly where the deleted files came from. This, in our opinion, is the best way of looking for specific files to recover.
