YOU SAVE MY MEMORY. I RECOVERED MY 20 YEAR OLD CD DATA VIA THIS SOFTWARE
Very good app
good app
I'm not actually sure how the zip file got corrupted. It had been stored on google drive for a long time and turned out to be corrupt when I tried to use it.
Either it was copying it from the computer to google drive or it may have been caused by some very long filenames causing the zip to be corrupted when it was created.
However, I was able to get the files I needed back from the zip, so the outcome was successful 😊
Optimal
It recovered my video as much as possible. I think the main goal of this software is to recover to the fullest extent and at least allow the disc-reader to read through the whole file. This is not some magic tool and parts that are too damaged will be replaced with grey color(not fully). It took me incredibly long for 1 GB file(about 2 days) where only about 30-40 seconds were damaged(I was really impressed by the speed of going through not damaged parts-even my reader couldnt read that fast; 90% of the time has gone to recovering that seconds). Overall, I'm happy with the results as I didnt care about the damaged parts, my main goal was to download the file which I couldnt do before. It's the only software I've tried so I cant really tell how good this software has done compared to others
this program is verry good
It has been damaged when zipping the file. it's a video from Iphone.
The zip file was damaged and I don'k know why. It has been already recovered, but the problem was that, after testing it with your demo, I bought the license and after register the software with your license, it was required to reboot the software, so I had to start again the recovery.
As a computer's technical and adivsor, I'm user of a lot of software for several works and always use a demo before purchasing the license (if it looks that works, of course), and from the demos version, after registering the license, it is not required to reboot the software, so I can continue with the data recovery (or whatever it needed) without loosing the time invested in checking the software. In your case, I had to start again the recovery, so it means that I loost a lot of time because of the need of restart your software after registering the purchased license.
So I guess that it would be interesting change this behaviour of your software after buying the license in demo cases. Best regards, Jordi
The program helped me a lot.

Files from the damaged archive were extracted. But the scan was VERY long.
All my crashed by viruses zip archives were restored for a moment. But tool doesn't support huge files.
Software helped me to recover zip archives. But some errors shows during parsing corrupted zip files.
