Installed and registered without problems on a Win 8.1 Pro 64 bit system.

A company without name and address, specializing on data recovery.

Starts already with a good impression on the download site with the information :

Do not install The Undelete Company Software Products on the disk the files were deleted from. Otherwise, those files will be overwritten. Install the program on a different data device (Second hard drive, floppy disk, USB drive, network drive, CD or DVD etc).

Obvious! But many companies are missing these essentials.

Can be installed as portable program! (e.g. running with a boot disk)

Upon start a clearly structured interface shows the drives and partitions. It also shows virtual partitions (Truecrypt), which other recovery software does not detect! (The first recovery software, I can remember, who does this)

Under the numerous options, I want to mention especially to create a virtual partition of the selected drive (if you have space enough, of course...) Then you do the possible recovery on that mounted virtual drive and not on the original drive. That's good and not found in other recovery software IMHO.

You can start a quick recovery process on the deleted files, or a deep scan on the file system level. The results are presented in an explorer like window, easy to understand.

After this short test, I have to state : I am impressed! This is rarely the case. Maybe the best recovery software, I have seen yet.

Will stay on my computer. Maybe I'll need this one day.

Just left this message on their support site:
"Can this be used starting from an external booting device?
(Like a CDR or a USB-Key/Disk)

If it has to be installed on the disk/system you have to recover data from that's the most sure way to compromise any possibility to recover data from the main bootable partition.
(Like C:\ in the case of Windows)"

As no one has the same problems as myself #2 I download again and reinstalled the software,
ran perfectly this time around.
My car video camera SD card on which there are a number of video and GPS log files has been used to test all recovery software for the last year or so.
It has not been used since the files were erased, most recovery software fails to find any of the video files and none that were found have been usable.

Tested today's download and it is by far the most successful recovery program I have used, it found 14 video files I knew existed plus some that I had forgotten about it also found all the log files. Sadly non-of the video files were viewable.
This is by far the most successful recovery software I have used and although it has a high price it is probably worth it as it appears to work, certainly much cheaper than having to send your storage device to recovery experts

Most definitely a keeper!

http://the-undelete.com/windows_partition_recovery.php
says "Recover data from formatted FAT, NTFS, ext2 and ext3 volumes". Fine, at least two Linux file systems!
"Creates virtual partitions that can be used as disks to recover data from". That means that you can try afterwards with another software.
"Supports hard drives (HDD) and any Solid State Drive (SSD), digital cameras, floppy disks, Zip disks, Jaz disks, Smart Media Cards, Sony Memory Sticks, Compact Flash cards, MicroDrives, Secure Digital Cards, xD Picture Cards, Flash cards, PC Cards, Multimedia Cards, and any USB disks"
Three reasons to try. Long time readers know that I have several programs available for worst case. But keep in mind the "The Undelete Company", oh what a great name don't tell anything about themselves in
http://the-undelete.com/company.php.
No country, address or anything. Must be a very very big company (LoL). And the price is fantastic: $139.95! (LoL)

But don't forget free and very renowned Testdisk+PhotoRecovery which starts from boot CD etc. i.e. no further destruction by starting windows.

And if you can get hold of a giveaway or free software from well known computer forensic people like CONVAR EUROPE Ltd., Rochester / England don't miss it:
PC INSPECTOR™ File Recovery 4 and
PC Inspector Smart Recovery 4.5 for photo media, both for single files

(cited: "Recovery of lost, damaged or deleted files, independent of data carrier and operating system. At our location in Pirmasens, Germany, we have one of the most modern data recovery centres in Europe. CONVAR was also entrusted with the recovery of data from storage systems that were destroyed in the attack on the World Trade Center of 11 September 2001.")
I have tried both programs years ago successfully.

But never install (!) recovery software after problems arised on the problematic partition.
