Overview
TestDisk and PhotoRec are free and powerful data recovery tools developed by CGSecurity. They help users recover lost files, restore deleted partitions, and fix damaged storage devices. Both tools work on Windows, Mac, and Linux. TestDisk is mainly used for partition recovery and repairing boot sectors. If a hard drive, USB, or memory card is corrupted or accidentally formatted, TestDisk can restore lost partitions and rebuild the boot sector. It supports many file systems, including NTFS, FAT, and exFAT.
PhotoRec is designed for file recovery. It can retrieve lost photos, videos, documents, and other files, even from damaged or formatted storage devices. Unlike TestDisk, which focuses on partitions, PhotoRec scans deeply and recovers files based on their unique signatures, making it useful even when the file system is missing. Both tools are open-source, lightweight, and portable. They require minimal system resources and work on old and new computers. Although they use a command-line interface, guides are available for easy usage. Many users trust these tools for data recovery because they are free, safe, and highly effective.
