CardRescue is a photo recovery software. It recovers deleted pictures from memory stick, SD card, Compact Flash card, xD Picture card and various flash memory cards used by digital camera. It also recovers lost photos from reformatted memory card, or damaged memory card.
Most digital cameras do not completely wipe digital pictures from the storage card when user deletes images, or uses the "Format" operation, so it is possible for CardRescue software to rescue the lost photos from the storage card. For corrupted memory card or memory card error, CardRescue will try to access the memory card in low level (raw mode), and bypass the original file system, so in many cases, it is able to recover the lost photos from damaged memory card.
JBIGBOOT This app saved my bacon. It found all of the "missing" files on my xD card and recovered them. It worked quickly and listed all the files it found. But it makes you purchase it before it will save the files to your hard drive. (Version 5.10)
