File Recovery helps you extract JPEG, PNG, PDF, ZIP, and GIF data by scanning for file signatures (carving), or recover deleted files from a FAT32 volume image using the filesystem and FAT. A small Qt interface wraps the same command-line engine for easier use on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Features

  • Multi Platform Supported -Windows, Apple Mac OS, Linux Supported
  • File carving — Scans data for JPEG, PNG, PDF, ZIP, and GIF using content signatures (magic bytes).
  • Single file or whole tree — Carve from one image/file, or recursively scan every file under a folder (carve mode).
  • Type filter — Limit carving to selected types (e.g. jpeg,png) via --types.
  • Bounded extraction — Configurable max size for formats where the end isn’t reliably detected (--max-chunk).
  • FAT32 undelete — Recover deleted files from a FAT32 volume image using BPB + FAT + directory entries (including LFN handling).
