If one was to ask a tech editor or a software reviewer about 'must-have' software that 90% PC users don't have a clue about, the answer would almost definitely be flash file recovery software. Almost half of all PC users in North America have digital photo and video cameras, mp3 players and other devices that use flash memory. The biggest misconception in the mind of the users of these devices is that once an image, mp3 song or other flash file is deleted or corrupted, it's lost. This is absolutely not true!

Flash Fire Recovery is probably Net's oldest and most powerful flash recovery software created specially for digital cameras. The program brings back deleted images and salvages pictures from damaged or corrupted digital media, including the camera's built-in memory. It works with virtually all media types, including SmartMedia, CompactFlash, Memory Stick, MicroDrive, xD Picture Card Flash Card, PC Card, Multimedia Card, and SD Card. While this program does not recover mp3 files, it does recover image files like JPEG, TIFF and such, as well as RAW image files - Canon CRW, Nikon NEF, Kodak DCR, among others. Video files - AVI, MOV, MPG/MPEG are supported as well.

The process of recovery is a brainlessly simple one – no technical expertise needed whatsoever. After the program is downloaded and installed, user has to select a device or flash card to be scanned (full system scan is available as well, but may take several hours). The program then finds all deleted and damaged files. At this point, the user can actually see files that were thought to be irreversibly lost. The last step is to save the recovered image(s).

The trial version performs all steps, except for the last one. This way any person can find out what images can be "undeleted" or recovered before purchasing the software.
