Comfy File Recovery 3.6

Comfy File Recovery is yet another data recovery application that comes with pretty much the same advantages that the large majority of similar data recovery applications offer. For example, it sports an easy-to-use wizard-like interface that guides the users step-by-step through the file recovery process, it supports recovering many different types of data files (images, music, videos, archives, documents, spreadsheets, etc.), it can recover data from various types of storage devices, like local hard disks, external hard drives, removable USB sticks, memory cards, and so on. Unfortunately, Comfy File Recovery doesn't stray off the beaten path when it comes to disadvantages too. The same important downside that a lot of similar file recovery applications have is present within Comfy File Recovery too: its licensing approach restricts you from using its free trial version for actually recovering any file. The trial version only shows the scan results, the recoverable files, but doesn't let you restore not even one bit of data. That's quite disappointing, but as I said, many similar tools use this kind of licensing restriction.

Comfy File Recovery comes with some more cool benefits, that I haven't mentioned yet, but none of them is truly unique or decisive. It can recover lost data regardless why that data was lost in the first place: accidental deletion, virus infections, system crashes, drive formatting, etc. The registered version can save the recovered data to any folder, record it to CD or DVD, create a virtual ISO copy, or save files to a remote server using an FTP protocol. Last but not least, the scanning speed is pretty good, it's above average compared to the other similar data recovery tools.

Cutting long story short, Comfy File Recovery is a nice data recovery tool despite not having any truly remarkable features. It's an elegant, straightforward, neat and handy tool that gets its job done.
