Portable FreeUndelete

Portable FreeUndelete is a very easy to use recovery application that can help you get back accidentally removed data.

As we all know by now, most similar programs come with very complex features and lengthy configuration processes that make the whole task pretty difficult, especially for those uninitiated.

Well, Portable FreeUndelete tries to be a bit different by offering a rather user friendly approach, with a simple interface and intuitive features.

The clear look of the main window relies on a multi-panel interface that shows the current drives available on the system, the files that can be recovered, plus filters to easily sort the found files.

Scanning a drive usually takes just a few seconds, but this obviously depends on the storage capacity and the type of drive, so it could take longer for a removable USB flash drive with large capacity. Portable FreeUndelete supports 4 file systems, namely NTFS 1.0, NTFS 2.0, FAT32, FAT16.

It didn't manage to find the same amount of recoverable data as other similar apps during our testing, but instead it completed the whole process very fast.

Another good thing about Portable FreeUndelete is that's it's portable, so you don't even need to install the program. It's enough to copy all files on a removable drive and launch it without prior installation wherever you go.

All things considered, Portable FreeUndelete is a handy piece of software, but it still needs a more effective recovery engine. It works blazing fast and boasts a friendly interface, with minimum configuration options, which can only be good news for beginners.
