Common Features
- Works in Windows 11, 10, 8, 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows are supported.
- Also works in Linux.
- View recoverable files as a list, or as thumbnail previews.
- Thumbnails will show previews of image files, album art from MP3 and WMA files, and icons from executable files!
- Selecting a recoverable file brings up a full preview of the file (insofar as possible). For image files, it will show the image (with pan and zoom). For document files, it will show a text-only preview of the document. For certain audio files, it will allow you to play back the sound.
- Previews of JPG and TIFF files will show EXIF information (camera model, date taken, sensor settings, etc.).
- Previews of MP3 files will show ID3 information (artist, album, genre, etc.).
- Previews of ZIP files will show a list of files contained in the archive.
Advanced Features
- Able to scan virtual disk image files:
- VHD files (Microsoft Virtual Hard Disk)
- VDI files (VirtualBox disk image)
- Direct binary disk images (acquired with <code>dd</code> or similar tools)
- When digging deeper, ability to start scanning from a specific location on the disk.
- When previewing files, the program optionally shows the first 4K bytes of the file as a hex dump.
What’s NEW:
Interface updates:
- The interface has been made simpler, yet more powerful. After selecting the drive you want to scan, you simply select the types of files you’d like to look for, and DiskDigger does the rest. There are options to search for “All file types” or “Specific file types”. Selecting a specific file type may result in slightly faster performance.
- When the scan is completed (or during!), DiskDigger organizes recoverable files into two tabs: “Found in file system” and “Found in free space”. The files in the “file system” tab are recovered through parsing the file system structures on the disk, and the files in the “free space” tab are found outside of the file system, or from a corrupted disk, or from the free space on your disk.
- The interface now also has improved support for high-DPI displays, adapting its fonts and icons more properly to your screen’s pixel density.
Data recovery engine updates:
- The data recovery algorithms that power DiskDigger have been streamlined and unified. In previous versions, users needed to select between two different modes of recovery (“deep” and “deeper” mode), but no more: in the newest version these have been combined into a single scan of your disk, which performs both a filesystem-aware search plus a free-space carving search, and makes all the results available to you for browsing, filtering, and recovering.
- Support for ReFS has been further expanded from the previous version.
- Improved support for recovering files in unallocated clusters in exFAT partitions.
- Tons of additional minor bug fixes and enhancements.
