Restore accidentally deleted from your computer by Recuva

Accidentally deleted data from your hard disk? No Problem dear...
Here is a solution to retrieve them by Recuva. By Recuva you can retrieve data even if you delete them by suing SHIFT+DELETE key. We generally think that by using SHIFT+DEL data may lost permanently. But it's wrong. But Recuva you can!

Recuva (pronounced "recover") is a freeware Windows utility to restore files that have been accidentally deleted from your computer. This includes files emptied from the Recycle bin as well as images and other files that have been deleted by user error from digital camera memory cards or MP3 players. It will even bring back files that have been deleted by bugs, crashes and viruses!

Recuva supports:
► FAT12, FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, NTFS5 , NTFS + EFS file systems
► Restores files from removable media (SmartMedia, Secure Digital, MemoryStick, Digital cameras, Floppy disks, Jaz Disks, Sony Memory Sticks, Compact Flash cards, Smart Media Cards, Secure Digital Cards, etc.)
► Can be run from a USB thumb drive
► It's fast, tiny and takes seconds to run!


► Select drive
► Click on Scan
► Select files which you want to recover
► Click on Recover
► Save it.

Make sure that it is better to recover files as quick as possible when you accidentally deleted. Because newly updated data may over write on deleted data space. This results incorrect backup of your lost files.

Delete files securely with File Shredder

With File Shredder you can remove files from your hard drive without fear they could be recovered. There are quite a few software tools today for retrieval of deleted files under Windows OS. Those tools, often referred to as "file recovery" software, are taking advantage of shortcoming of Windows "delete" command that we all use regularly to delete files.

Actually, the "delete" operation in Windows only removes bits of information from files so they appear deleted in OS. It is easy to retrieve those files using aforementioned specialized file recovery software.

In order to remove, or shred files permanently from your system you have to use a program that is capable of rewriting the files with random series of binary data multiple times. This process is often called shredding. That way, the actual content of the file has been overwritten and the possibilities to recover such a shredded file are mostly theoretical.



File Shredder has been developed as fast, safe and reliable tool to shred company files. I believe this utility should be available to anyone for free and that permanent and safe removal of confidential documents is a matter of basic right to privacy.

In File Shredder you can choose between 5 different shredding algorithms, each one gradually stronger than the previous one. It also has integrated Disk Wiper which uses shredding algorithm to wipe unused disk space. More on options of File Shredder check Online Help page.

USB Disk Ejector: It's free and does what it says


USB Disk Ejector is a small, free program that allows for instant, quick 1-click ejection of a USB drive or USB device such as an Ipod or MP3 player. It also works when run from the device itself that you want to eject.

This is a no-install program that you can run from anywhere, including your removable USB media itself, that will present you with a list of all USB devices connected to your computer.

So what's the advantage of this software over the normal right-click "safely remove this device?" For one, you won't get that annoying and supremely unhelpful dialog bubble, "you can now safely remove this device." Also, the command line utility gives you access to ejecting options without having to leave the keyboard.

Try ejecting with USB Disk Ejector if/when you encounter the dreaded "volume cannot be stopped right now … try later" message (see below),


By this software disk ejecting problems can be solved.



With VistaMizer you can keep your Windows XP operating system while enjoying a brand new, true Vista look. In addition to changing the whole desktop appearance, more than 300 files are replaced with new icons, pictures and videos. This means that VistaMizer does not provide its own files, but modifies those of your system which you select during the installation process.
In any case, VistaMizer is optimized to get over compatibility issues and therefore ensures that the system doesn't become unstable due to the changes. And if you're not satisfied by the results or simply want to go back to XP, you have the possibility to return to your old system by running VistaMizer's uninstallation feature. Take a look at what the program features:

  • Modifies your own system files
  • Free choice of the files you want to change
  • Multilingual support
  • Compatibility check during installation
  • Backup of the original system files

    True crypt is an Open source tool for storing data securely. TrueCrypt is a software system for establishing and maintaining an on-the-fly-encrypted volume (data storage device). On-the-fly encryption means that data are automatically encrypted or decrypted right before they are loaded or saved, without any user intervention. No data stored on an encrypted volume can be read (decrypted) without using the correct password/keyfile(s) or correct encryption keys. Entire file system is encrypted (e.g.., file names, folder names, contents of every file, free space, meta data, etc).
    Truecrypt supports two types of encryption process. One is standard truecrypt and hidden true crypt. Select standard truecrypt option is the better choice to the beginner. I already said in my previous posts by truecrypt we can create encrypts volumes for removale storage devices too. In the next option software asks you, to whether select the file or device. You select it according to your requirement.
    Don't confuse to look for the created encrypted drive after encryption process. It has to mount. Select mount option for particular drive letter where the encrypted file is stored
    The great feature of the truecrypt is its encryption algorithms. Here you can choose any encryption algorihms which is better fit for the choice of encryption level. True crypt allows only a larger and complex passwords only.

    Note:
    Be careful the user who are using it at first. I lost my 14GB data with wrong selection of options.
    Be careful while selecting mount partitions. But don't have fear about data loss. You should not fear to do any experiment. In your life toooooo.

    The Power of Ccleaner- An OSS

    My system slowed down. Most of the people says like this.
    Find the reasons behind of it.
    (I already explained about it in my previous posts)
    Most probably,
    1. Bulk of Temporary files stored in your computer.
    2. Unexpected changes in windows registry entry.
    3. Proper install and uninstallations of softwares.
    3. Application which runs at system start up.

    Are you agreeing my points.

    Now all these problems can be solved by an Open source software i.e CCleaner
    CCleaner consists of
    Temporary file cleaner
    Registry cleaner
    Uninstaller
    Startup
    All the above problems can be
    solved by the CCleaner

    Here a major advantage only I want to say to you.

    Are you observed?
    You can't uninstall multiple applications by windows "Add/Remove Programs"
    Even you can't select another application while uninstalling.

    But here you can do multiple uninstallations at a time.
    These are the advantages of a single and powerful software CCleaner

    Why Don't you use open source softwares

    You know that each any every software need some registration.
    It requires registration code to access the full version of the software.

    I have a doubt that why people are not using open source softwares.
    These are free and powerful.

    In my machine I use all open softwares and free softwares.
    There is no trial version and limited capabilities.

    Just look at these and tell me is there any utility require ?

    Operating system:
    When I was purchased my machine Windows XP Pro Service pack 2
    preloaded. So there is no need of Xp installed again.

    Then I installed application softwares given below.......

    Anti Virus:
    I am using ClamWin 0.91.2
    Or
    You can use Avast home edition for free

    Spyware:
    I am using Spybot search and destroy.

    Firewall Security:
    I am using Comodo Firewall security
    or
    You can use Zone Alarm.
    (zone Alarm is a free software for only firewall It requires registrtion for spam blocking)

    Temporary error cleaner and registry cleaner:
    I am using Ccleaner for temporary files .And useful for Registry cleaner.

    Zip Software:
    I use 7-Zip for zip files.

    PDF (Portable Document File) Reader:
    I use FoxitReader for pdf files viewer.

    Office (Word,PowerPoint,Excel):
    I use Openoffice org 2.2.

    CD burner:
    Generally you can get it from the manufacturer.
    If ever you require use InfraRecorder .

    Image Viewers:
    Google provides free software Picassa for maintaining Images.
    Or
    Use OSS Irfan view.

    Vedio and audio Players:
    I am using VLC Player for Vedio.
    and Real Player

    Internet:
    Generally most of the internet applications are free.I prefer

    Browser:Mozilla Firefox
    Download Manager: Orbit Download Manager

    Now tell me Is there any need to buy a software?

    Caution:
    Don't use pirated versions, and Cracks.
    Because there is lot of effort behind of software making.
    Software companies are spending cores of rupees for making a single software.
    Don't steel others hardwork.
