RECOVERY PROCESS
In this segment, we look at the basic recovery process for Stellar Phoenix Photo Recovery. Once you have installed and started the software, you will be asked to pick the type of file you want to scan for. Being able to select a specific file type is nice inclusion since it reduces scan time. Next you will need to pick a location to scan. You can pick a specific partition to scan or even a folder. There is also an option under “other locations” called “can’t find drive” using this you can recover data from RAW partition with relative ease.
If you select this option, on the next screen you can run a quick scan that will pull partition information from your computer and display what it finds. Once you hit the scan button Stellar Phoenix automatically initiates a quick scan first. Whether you are running the initial quick scan or have moved on to deep scan, you are provided an onscreen data to let you know how much of the scan has been completed, how much time has elapsed and how much more time the scan should take.
Once the scan is complete you can view recovered data by:
· File type: sort content into categories
· Tree View: displays content based on the directory structure
· Deleted list: only shows deleted and lost files
When you click on a file, if possible you will be shown a preview of its contents. This helps you determine if a given file is what you are looking for before recovering it. Mark any folder or file for recovery by checking the box beside its name and click to “recover” button to recover. If you are not ready to recover you can save the scan details for later.
PRICING & LICENSING
A typical Stellar Phoenix license applies to a single device and is good for life. For IT professionals, there are toolkit license available, which lets you use the software on any computer and any operating system, whether Windows, Mac or Linux.
