WorkinTool Data Recovery Software Tutorial

WorkinTool Data Recovery Software will automatically remind you of new versions. You can also manually check for updates on the software homepage.

WorkinTool Data Recovery Software designs two two interface modes, Wizard Mode & Scene Mode. The two modes do not differ in features. They only offer convenience for users who face different data loss situations.

1. Wizard Mode allows users to search for lost data by location, like desktop, recycle bin, specific folder, disk partition, and external device.

2. Scene Mode develops six different recovery entries based on data loss scenarios, e.g.

• Deletion Recovery for deleted files

• Formatted Recovery for formatted files and devices

• USB/Memory Card Recovery for lost files on any external storage media

• Recycle Bin Recovery for permanently deleted files from Windows Recycle Bin

• Disk & Partition Recovery for lost files from all disks and partitions connected to computers

• Deep Recovery for deeply-hidden files or files lost a long time ago that the five methods above fail to find

1. Open WorkinTool Data Recovery Software, and you will enter WorkinTool Wizard Mode with Path Choice and Partition Lost on the left navigation pane. In this mode, you can select specific folders, recycle bin, desktop, internal drives, and external drives (if connected) to scan. (Or you can switch to the Scene Mode and select a recovery method based on your data loss situation.)

2. Select a location where the files get lost. Then a pop-up window will appear, enabling you to pick a recovery method, like quick, deep, or formatted recovery. Read the brief introduction to the three scanning methods in the window and press Scan Now to start scanning.

3. After scanning, you will see a page showing the file type, file directory, deleted files on the left navigation pane, the filter feature and search box on the upper right corner, and a file list. Use the navigation pane or the filter feature to search and locate your deleted files, tick the files you wish to recover, and hit Recover to bring them back.

• We recommend you save the to-be-recovered files to a new path in case of accidental overwriting.

• If unsatisfied with the quick recovery result, you can click Deep Scan on the bottom to relaunch a more comprehensive scan, which takes more time but also shows a better result.

1. Open WorkinTool Data Recovery Software and click the Scene Mode button at the bottom.

2. Choose Formatted Recovery from the six scenes. Then pick a drive, specify the partition's file system before it was formatted, and press Sure to launch a scan.

3. Use the left navigation pane to locate your formatted files, or look for formatted files by the filter feature and the search box in the upper right corner. You can filter files by type, size, or modified date. After finding the files you want to restore, click Recover and select a new path to store them.

1. Open WorkinTool Data Recovery Software and select a drive from the Internal Drives menu in the Wizard Mode. (If a partition is missing, you can go to Partition Lost to select the hard disk with missing partitions.)

2. After selecting a location where the files get lost, a pop-up window will remind you to pick a recovery method, like quick recovery, deep recovery, or formatted recovery. Read the brief introduction to the three scanning methods in the window and press Scan Now to start scanning.

3. After scanning, you will see a page showing the file type, file directory, deleted files on the left navigation pane, the filter feature and search box on the upper right corner, and a file list. Use the navigation pane or the filter feature to search and locate your deleted files, tick the files you wish to recover, and hit Recover to bring them back.

1. Connect your external storage media to a Windows computer, open WorkinTool Data Recovery Software, and select the external storage device from the Partition on mobile device menu in the Wizard Mode.

2. After selecting the drive, a pop-up window will remind you to pick a recovery method, like quick recovery, deep recovery, or formatted recovery. Read the brief introduction to the three scanning methods in the window to pick a method and press Scan Now to start scanning.

3. After scanning, you will see a page showing the file type, file directory, deleted files on the left navigation pane, the filter feature and search box on the upper right corner, and a file list. Use the navigation pane or the filter feature to search and locate your deleted files, tick the files you wish to recover, and hit Recover to store them in a new path.

1. Launch WorkinTool Data Recovery Software and see the Specify a location menu in the Wizard Mode. Herein, you can click Desktop, Recycle Bin, or Specific Folder to scan missing files.

2. After scanning, you will see a page showing the file type, file directory, deleted files on the left navigation pane, the filter feature and search box on the upper right corner, and a file list. Use the navigation pane or the filter feature to search and locate your deleted files.

3. Tick the checkbox before the files you wish to recover, and hit Recover to store them in a new path.

An external drive that doesn't show up may be because of partition issues, incompatible file systems, USB port errors, or Windows driver issues. If your drive has nothing to do with these factors, go to Partition Lost, click the Refresh icon, and plug in the drive again. Then select deep recovery mode for the partition or physical disk of a corresponding size.

Note: If that doesn't work, contact our professional engineers to fix problems for free. The recovery rate is up to 98%.

Yes. You can preview scanned files on the result page by double-clicking the file name. This feature is available in V.1.9.0.0 and later versions. Common videos, pictures, and documents are previewable.

The Pro version allows users to preview all files without restrictions. However, the free trial version restricts users from complete previewing. Users can only preview 15-second video footage and parts of pictures/documents.

Yes. WorkinTool can restore permanently deleted files as long as the original files are not overwritten.

Deep Recovery means comprehensively searching for data to maximize the recovery of all files. Compared with the other five recovery modes, it has better recovery capabilities and supports more data recovery and data loss in various scenarios. Consequently, full-depth recovery will take more time.

WorkinTool Data Recovery Software can recover 1000+ formats of missing files from Windows computers and external drives.

Unfortunately, it can't. WorkinTool Data Recovery Software is a file recovery tool rather than a file repair tool. It can recover missing corrupted files but is unable to restore them to a healthy state.

After scanning, you will see the comprehensive result page clearly. There are two convenient and feasible ways to find lost data.

1. Under the left navigation pane is the file list sorted by type, directory, or status (existing or deleted). It will be quick to locate lost data if you remember the original path.

2. On the upper right corner are the filter tool and search box. This file mask recovery tool can look for lost files by type, size, name, and modification date.

The scan speed is fast. The average scanning speed can be in seconds (or minutes), But the deep scan takes longer, ranging from minutes to hours, according to the size of the storage drive.

1. Probably, your drivers have some errors. Make sure your drivers are healthy and relaunch the software.

2. For an external drive, you can reconnect it and rerun the program.

WorkinTool Data Recovery Software offers 500MB of free recovery space. For unlimited recovery, you can pay a license starting at $29.99 a month.

We strongly recommend you store the to-be-recovered data on a new drive to avoid accidental overwriting.
