7-Data Card Recovery is an application that helps users restore memory card data that has been deleted, formatted or corrupted. 7-Data Card Recovery works with a wide range of flash memory cards, ranging from SD card variants to memory sticks. As trustworthy as flash memory cards are, they are still vulnerable to corruption and the accidental deletion of data. The developers of 7-Data Card Recovery hope their data recovery utility will serve as your solution for retrieving data from your memory cards.

Using 7-Data Card Recovery

The bulk of 7-Data Card Recovery's main interface is dedicated to its file explorer window. The file explorer show your memory cards after you've inserted your memory card into your computer's card reader or designated your mobile device as a storage unit. Depending on your computer's processing power and the size of your memory card, the standard recovery could be completed in a matter of seconds.

There's a "Refresh" button you can use to display your memory card in the file explorer window if it doesn't appear automatically. The "Next" button allows you to initiate the recovery process after selecting a memory card from the explorer window. Recoverable content will appear in the file explorer, and from there you can elect which items you wish to save to your computer. 7-Data Card Recovery also features an "Advanced Settings" button that you can use before starting the recovery process.

The Advanced Settings button enables you to expedite the recovery process by specifying file types for 7-Data Card Recovery to target. Instead of searching your memory card for every bit of data, 7-Data Card Recovery will focus on recovering the file types you specify. Defining file types for 7-Data Card Recovery to search for can also make it easier for you to sift through the results.

The Verdict

While 7-Data Card Recovery brings no innovation into the ranks of data recovery software, the application serves its purpose as best as can be expected. There's no glitz to its interface, but it can recover or repair lost files as well as any of its contemporaries.
