DatarecoveryHQ.com is dedicated to helping you save files and data you may have inadvertantly lost due to not backing it up or unsuspected corruption by power surge, virus or some other unexpected event. You can never prevent your data against accidental deletion, formatting, virus/malware attack or file system corruption and hence, loss of data is also almost inevitable. In such panic situations, technologies like hard drive data recovery can be immensely helpful in recovering the lost, deleted, inaccessible or formatted data from your troubled hard disk.

There are various reasons that might result in a hard drive crash, but the most important ones can be summarized as follows,

• Viruses - Because the virus is designed to destroy data, it may infect the operating system files making it impossible to read the files needed to run the computer.
• Corrupted Files - Several different processes can corrupt files. Installing a new program can corrupt an existing file, as can closing a program through a means other than the exit command.

There are mainly two types of hard drive failure that usually occur; logical failures and physical failures. A logical hard drive failure is generally a software or data problem.  On the other hand, your logical drive failure could be limited to a single file or folder. For example, you may have just accidentally deleted the folder containing all the digital photos from your cousin’s wedding. In both of these cases the opportunity to recover data after a hard drive crash is fairly good.

When we accidentally delete a file which is of utmost importance, we run cold, thinking that the file is deleted and all the data is lost forever. But no, it isn’t like that. When we delete a file it is not really erased, instead it is just marked for deletion and its location is hidden from view.

Until it is overwritten, the file still exists on the disk and is recoverable. That means you dramatically increase the chances of being able to recover a deleted file if you refrain from any subsequent disk activity, such as creating, editing or copying files.

When possible we will give you ways to recover the file manually or by the use of a tested software specifically designed to recover lost files, hard drive partitions and repairing damaged files.  We hope that you find this site useful and look forward to providing you with useful information to keep your files secure and you computer in good working order.
