DocRepair

DocRepair is a powerful yet easy to use Windows software utility designed to help you repair damaged or corrupted Microsoft Word documents, all with just a few configuration options.

The interface has been designed as a wizard, so users only need to follow a few steps to complete the document repairing process.

Although it's organized in tabs, users are asked to hit the “Next” button at the bottom of each window, which means you're required to fill in all fields before proceeding with the wizard.

First, you are prompted to provide the path to the damaged or corrupted document, while you're then allowed to configure document recovery options.

In case the document content has been created in other language than English, there's a dedicated option to let DocRepair know about it, but you can also enable salvage content retrieval mode and embedded images retrieval.

The next step is actually the recovery process per se, with DocRepair showing a dedicated window with information concerning the task progress, while afterward it shows a preview of the repaired document.

As you can see, DocRepair is based on quite a straightforward process, so there's nothing to configure about it. It supports Microsoft Word 6.0, Word 95, Word 97/2000/XP/2003 and 2007.

While the repairing process takes just a few seconds, this also depends on the overall size of the document, so it could take a bit longer in case you're trying to repair a larger damaged document.

DocRepair is a handy piece of software that proves quite effective when trying to deal with document structural damage or with bad sectors. It works quick and can recover text, photos an tables with minimum effort.
