Η Microsoft κυκλοφόρησε σήμερα στους insiders, μια νέα απλοποιημένη έκδοση του εργαλείου File Recovery των Windows 10, which makes it easier to use.
In June, Microsoft released quietly in the Microsft Store, a new file recovery tool called Windows File Recovery (WinFR) that lets you recover deleted files from hard drives, USB drives, and SD cards.
When the tool was first released, it contained a confusing mix of recovery methods and was not very clear as to which one to use.
With today's Windows 10 Insider build 21286, Microsoft released a new version of the Windows File Recovery tool (winfr.exe) that includes new functions, which are easier to use. This new version is only available to Insiders and users in regular versions will not be able to download it.
With this release, Microsoft is introducing two new features. The "regular" and "extensive" that can be used to recover files in Windows 10, as shown in the following help instructions.
The “regular” mode is used to recover recently deleted files and when o hard drive it is not damaged. The "extensive" function, on the other hand, is used to recover a file that was recently deleted when a disk was corrupted and the disk is already formatted.
To make it easier for you to determine which feature to choose, Microsoft released the following table:
File system | Cases | Suggested mode |
NTFS | Recently deleted | Regular |
NTFS | It was deleted a while ago | Extensive |
NTFS | After formatting a disc | Extensive |
NTFS | A damaged disk | Extensive |
FAT and exFAT | Anyone | Extensive |
To test the new version of WinFR, you will need to install Windows 10 Insider build 21286 from the Dev channel.
