#Stellar photo recovery review software#
Pricing is a bit on the higher side but given the software provides both recovery and repairing solutions, it is understandable. Stellar Photo Recovery Premium costs $69 for a single system valid for one year. This might not be the best test case but it is what it is. The software failed to repair even when I uploaded the original uncorrupted images.
I was taken to ‘Advance Repair’ which requires you to upload a sample image. I tried to repair three corrupted photographs and the software failed to repair them. I didn’t have any corrupted photos or videos so I tried online photo corrupting tools to test the software. Honestly speaking, I wasn’t impressed with the feature. Thankfully, Stellar Photo Recovery Premium also offers repair functionality for photos and videos. There is nothing more frustrating than a corrupted file that won’t open. The software is definitely a lifesaver for “Oh shoot! I accidentally pressed the delete button” community. I would describe Stellar Photo Recovery Premium’s recovery capabilities excellent as it is really a relief to recover almost all the files if you have simply deleted them. Also, not only you can recover JPEG and PNG images, the software can also recover RAW photos. One of the pros of this recovery software is the fact that images were restored with their original name and timestamp which made it easy for me to identify the files I want to recover from the list of recoverable files. To my surprise, the recovery success rate dropped to 80 and 85%. To make it tougher for the software, I formatted a pen drive thrice and then tried recovering images from it. The rest of the images that were recovered were broken or useless. To test the recovery capabilities of the Stellar Photo PRecovery Premium, I formatted a pen drive and was able to recover almost 95% of my data. Mind it, these were the files I didn’t delete permanently but simply deleted them or moved them to Trash. I tried the software and was able to recover files that I deleted almost a month ago. If you’re not able to find the file you want to recover, an additional ‘Deep Scan’ option is also available which, as evident from its name, performs an in-depth sector-wise scan for any recoverable files. One thing that I liked about Stellar Photo Recovery Premium is that it shows a preview of the files that you want to recover. Once scanned, you can click on the files that you want to recover. Scanning could take some time depending upon the size of the storage media. Click on ‘scan’ and the software will start scanning the recoverable files. It could be your computer’s internal storage or external storage connected to your PC. Next, you need to select the location of the storage media from where you want to recover the files. You can also choose from the buttons below if you want to repair photos or videos. On the launch screen, you get a big blue button for recovering photo, audio, and video. I am using Stellar Photo Recovery Premium on my MacBook, and the interface is as simple as it should be for a recovery software.
