IsoBuster

As unfortunate as it might be, losing valuable data due to crashes or even human errors happens quite frequently, and you typically need to use a dedicated software solution for recovering these files, such as IsoBuster.

Before you can benefit from this app, you need to select the source medium where the files you want to recover are stored. IsoBuster supports multiple types of devices, such as CDs, DVDs, Blu-ray discs, hard drives, SSDs, USB flash drives, and even floppies.

Moreover, you can select a wide range of image files from your PC, like ISO, CUE, BIN, IMG, DMG, CDI, MDF, VHD, VDI, VDMK, as well as several specialized files generated by popular game consoles (PlayStation, Wii, Atari ST, Xbox, Amiga or Dreamcast).

If you plan on using IsoBuster to retrieve data from more than one source medium, you can easily access them once more at a later time using the recently open list.

After you loaded the source file or drive, IsoBuster offers you the possibility to explore the available files, and to generate a list where the items with errors are clearly marked.

You can go one step further and set the app to look for missing or deleted files and folders, while also checking if all the data is physically readable.

Another handy feature of IsoBuster is that, depending on the source medium, it can treat the processed files as videos only, meaning that it can extract all data, but it only filters MPEG video frames.

To wrap it up, this application can be of great use to all those who often find themselves in the situation of extracting items from corrupted drives. It should be mentioned that this app should be operated by those with technical skills, to ensure successful recovery.
