IMAGE RECOVERY Selecting Recovery Mode: Image Rescue 2.0 offers three different recovery modes High Level Search – This is the fastest and most convenient way to recover data. It uses existing file system information on the card to locate and recover deleted images with original filenames and extensions. This mode can recover all data on the card not just image data.
Extensive Search – This option performs the most comprehensive search, and scans every block of memory attempting to recover all possible image data on the card. This can often result in leftover image fragments being recovered as well as complete images. For both Low Level Search and Extensive Search – JPEG images will be recovered with a .jpg extension. TIFF and RAW files are recovered with a .tif extension.
CARD TEST Card test performs a software file system test as well as a hardware test of the card. File system errors will be automatically corrected. Hardware errors will be reported and you will need to contact the card supplier for further support.
