Download a free evaluation copy of CnW Data Recovery Software and view your lost data NOW
The CnW data recovery software free download will recover files from camera memory chips, hard drives, CD-ROMs and DVDs. The formats it can handle include FAT32, FAT16 and NTFS. Partitions and boot sectors can also be recovered. Click here for further details of CnW Software. (Unfortunately, it is not possible to recover photos directly from the camera, but only via a card reader). NB, CnW Software never writes to the media being recovered. Be very wary of any recovery program that claims it can fix a hard disk by writing to it. Advance recovery routines ensure accurate recovery of photos from deleted FAT32 memory devices. With a corrupt disk, it is not always possible to know what the problem is, and writing to it can cause more problems than it fixes. The only exception this rule could be for updating boot sectors.

The current demo download is a basic version. It will not actually save any files - a feature of the demo, but will give directory listings and logs of files on the media.
The program (and demo) will run on
- Windows XP, and XP Pro and Vista, Windows 7, Windows 7 - 64*
- It requires a modern processor (1.5GHz or better)
- Video screen, 1024 x 768 or better
- 512MB of RAM (1GB or more recommended).
- Peripheral devices can be USB, SCSI, or Firewire, as well as IDE and SATA
To recover data from a CD-ROM, it is always best - and often essential, to use a CD-RW drive. Many features on a CD-R can only be accessed by RW drive. And for DVDs, a DVD-RW is always best.
Installation
Once the program has been downloaded, run CnWInstall.msi Typically follow the default options. On running the program for the first time, it will be necessary to enter the registration code, which for the demo program, is DEMO (upper or lower case).
The demo will allow viewing of directories, but to restore programs, the full registration code will need to be purchased, for which CnW will require the 8 digit code displayed on the View / Configuration / Software Registration screen. The license will then be associated with a single machine.
