Active@ Partition Recovery 5.5

You think accidentally deleting a file you need is bad? If you do, then I have an even worse scenario for you: imagine that an entire partition has been deleted. All the files, all the data stored on that partition – which you probably needed – are gone because the partition has been deleted. When such a thing happens there is only one thing you can do: turn to software and see if there is an application out there that can lend a helping hand.

The application that can lend a helping hand in this situation is the aptly named Active@ Partition Recovery. The functionality this LSoft Technologies-developed application provides may be obvious from its name - Active@ Partition Recovery. But then again, it may not be so obvious, so I am going to spell it out to make sure that everyone understands what this application can do.

Here goes: by using Active@ Partition Recovery you can recover deleted partitions and logical disks on hard drives. Here is what you can expect to get from Active@ Partition Recovery:
- Recover deleted partitions and logical disks on hard drives
- Create and restore Raw Disk Image back to HDD
- Display complete Physical and Logical Drive information
- Restore MBR, Partition Table and Boot Sectors from backup if damaged
- Active@ Partition Recovery is such a small application that you can keep it on just about any storage device, even a bootable floppy disk
