Version 7 adds more Windows disk support
SubRosaSoft has upgraded its file recovery software, FileSalvage 7. The software recovers deleted files, as well as files lost in an accidental reformat or initialization. It works on multiple file systems, recovering files from Mac OS hard disks, iPods, flash cards, Linux and Windows disks or Boot Camp partitions. The software is also claimed to work with scratched CDs. The interface provides previews of recoverable files, with options to reconstruct file names of many formats such as JPG, MP3 and M4A.
Version 7 is primarily a Snow Leopard compatibility update, while also integrating a revamped user interface. Users can now start file recovery after three quick steps. The udpate also provides code improvements and stronger support for camera cards and Windows disks.
FileSalvage 7 requires Mac OS X 10.4 or higher and 256MB of RAM, along with a secondary hard disk for recovered files. The software can be purchased for $90 on a CD, or $80 as a download only.
