Microsoft has released a new Windows 10 utility called Windows File Recovery that helps users recover damaged or deleted files.
Windows File Recovery is a free app in the Microsoft store which can be used to recover data that has been lost for a variety of reasons. The command line tool can be used to retrieve data from local hard drives as well as removable media such as USB drives and memory cards.
“Accidentally deleted an important file? Wiped clean your hard drive? Unsure of what to do with corrupted data? Windows File Recovery can help recover your personal data,” Microsoft says on the Microsoft Store listing for the app.
“For photos, documents, videos and more, Windows File Recovery supports many file types to help ensure that your data is not permanently lost.”
You can download Windows File Recovery here, and more information about the app is available on the Microsoft support site.
