Flash Retriever

Flash Retriever is a powerful recovery tool developed by InfinaDyne that specializes in retrieving lost or deleted files from various types of flash memory devices. Whether you've lost pictures, movies, or sound files from SmartMedia™, Memory Stick™, CompactFlash™, xD Picture Card™, or even a Sony Mavica camera floppy diskette, Flash Retriever 1.3 has got you covered. This program will recover everything that can be found even if the card has been formatted.

The latest version, 1.3, introduces impressive support for raw image formats. Unlike many other recovery programs available on the Internet, Flash Retriever now offers the ability to recover these high-quality, uncompressed files from renowned camera brands such as Canon, Nikon, Olympus, and Kodak. Additionally, the program can display thumbnail images from raw camera files, making it easy to identify the correct pictures that need recovery.

Regarding its usability, Flash Retriever makes recovering accidentally deleted files a breeze. It is crucial to stop using the media if you realize important files have been deleted, as the program can successfully recover these files unless new data has overwritten the old ones. Although many video cameras are supported, it is worth noting that due to the recording method used by the Sanyo/Fischer FVD-C1, deleted videos from these specific models cannot be recovered.

For those looking to evaluate the program before purchasing, Flash Retriever offers versions including Flash Retriever Evaluation, Flash Retriever Demo, and the fully functional Flash Retriever. The supported operating systems include Windows XP, 7, 8, 10, and the latest Windows 11. Other available versions are 1.3, 1.2, and 1.0.

The program files include FlashRecover.exe, FlashRetreiver.exe, FlashRetriever.exe, and FlashRetrieverForensic.exe, providing different options for various needs. As part of the System Utilities category under the Backup & Restore subcategory, Flash Retriever stands out for its versatility and efficiency in data recovery.
