Stellar Phoenix NTFS Data Recovery

'Quick Scan' feature carries out a fast scan on your selected volume or removable media to recover all lost, deleted, or formatted data. This mode of scan is generally useful in all instances of data loss in Windows. Alternatively, 'Deep Scan' method is a more rigorous way of searching data on a Windows-based drive or volume. It usually takes more time than 'Quick Scan', but facilitates a reliable and complete Windows data recovery.

Stellar Phoenix NTFS Data Recovery incorporates a 'Search Lost Volume' feature to allow you search for all the lost or deleted volumes in your system. To do this, follow the given steps:

• Launch the software and select 'Start Recovery' on the 'Recovery Options' tab.
• On the next screen, click on 'Search Lost Volumes'.
• Select the hard disk drive you need to scan and click 'Continue'.
• Select the scan mode for recovery. You can choose either 'Quick Scan' or 'Deep Scan'.
• After completion of the scan, all the found volumes are listed in the left pane.
• Select any of these volumes and follow the normal recovery procedure to recover your files and folders using the software.

You can use the 'Formatted/Lost File & Folder Recovery' feature of the software to recover data from formatted volumes. In case you have converted your NTFS based volume to a FAT partition, you can still recover data by scanning this volume as NTFS. The software will list all data stored on your previous NTFS volume. You can choose the desired files and folders that you need to recover.

'Raw Recovery' is an advanced feature of Stellar Phoenix NTFS Data Recovery. Using this feature, you can perform a signature-based search for your lost or deleted files. You can specify the desired file types that you need to recover by applying various filters. The software extensively searches your drive or volume for all the selected file types and gives you optimum recovery results. This feature is advantageous in all cases where recovery is not possible using the conventional method.

The software enables you to apply 'Mask' after the completion of scan process. Masking helps you to narrow down the scan results and create a new tree structure containing only the desired file types. You can set file mask based on several parameters, such as file type, match case, size, data, etc. You should use this feature to perform selective recovery of files.

The software provides a number of options for saving your recovered files. You can either save files on your local hard disk or restore them to an FTP server. To recover files to FTP server, you need to specify the 'Server Name/ IP Address', 'Port No.', 'Username', and 'Password'. You can also apply compression to save all your recovered files as single '.zip' file or choose to compress each file individually.
