Kickass Undelete Reviews

After three months of two computers trashing themselves, endless hours of cleaning up 6 disk drives, and three days of the computer refusing to boot, that SCAN button was just the right size - nicely visible through my tears of rage. As for doing the job, if the program was a dog I would have plopped it on my lap and cuddled it. IE, Check where?.... Here you go! Ease: Duhh. Click. I want my files, not a 12 in one kitchen appliance. Don'ts needs no steenking feeetures! Design. Well, I can live without pastels. Support? WYSIWYG needs support? SUGGESTION for Everyone! Buy a couple or three reasonably good SATA SSDs, 120GB will do. Wasted Digital Greens will do the job and are super cheap. Install the drives and label them tasty, like TRASH or similar. Now test it with Kickass. Toss a crap file in there then delete it and check to make sure it is found and recovered. Now, NEVER just delete or Recycle Bin ANY FILES! Just toss them in Trash. Drag and drop. Then once every week or two review what is in there, always giving yourself a few days to discover if you screwed up and wanted to keep something. Once it gets full, use the second Trash SSD. Once it gets full and you have done several reviews, delete all the crap on the oldest one and start over with it. The trick is, these drives are never used for anything else but To_Be_Deleted. No over writes and unrecoverable files. Just a nifty little buffer between you and file oblivion.

Files are restored and show file sizes, but they are just null bytes. Tried hundreds of types from multiple drives, all null bytes.

KickassUndelete_1.5.5.exe file It has a virus. MaxSecure and SecureAge APEX software They were able to detect the virus in this file. MaxSecure software also detected this file as a trojan.

doesn't appear to support classic FAT16, would've bump the feature's stars to 5 😉

Thank you! This is just great. It recovered files that windows file recovery could not find. Free! Easy to use!

First of all, the simplicity of the interface is really wonderful. And I must say that I really like it how KickAss undelete gives me a proper overview of all deleted files and also calculates the chance of recovery. It doesn't appear to support external/removable devices and keeps them disabled. And THAT is precisely where most changes in my file system take place and thus the greatest chance of files being deleted that should NOT be delete. And this simple fact makes this tool for me completely useless, which is really a pity for such a wonderfully set up tool that would otherwise be downright THE tool every Windows computer needs. If this feature could be implemented I'd be very very happy, and I would definitely even give it more stars. That one feature it lacks, was the most vital one of all.

Thank you very much for the free open source program!

Отличная программа!

This actually does kickass!

Restored a file I accidentally deleted on my Windows 10 PC. I'd sweated blood to create everything in that file. KickassUndelete recovered it all. How can I buy you guys a beer? There's no donate button.

Will not scan my 64 GB SanDisk USB drive. I see this has happened to others also. I would not call a program with a single button, a single checkbox, and a list of available drives, "Full Featured".

Hi guys, I just wanna say thank you for this tool. It help me a lot. Just a input, I experience memory/RAM hog here, it consume all my RAM while the undelete process started, and it will not stop (up to 8 GB - that's my RAM size) and continue using pagefile, until I close the application. But overall this app, it's a Kickass! Thanks guys

THANK YOU!!!! Took a chance on this freeware and I am soo happy I could cry! Thank you soo much for creating this software and making it free. I accidently deleted a folder containing ALL of my videos and photos of my kids and thanks to your software I was able to rescue most of them. I cannot thank you enough! I'll be sure to tell everyone I know how amazing this software is. Totally KICKASS!!!

It won't scan any removable media. Could be useful, but my lost files are on a thumb drive. I did try another thumb drive and had the same problem.

It crashes after discovering undeleted files.

Downloaded Kickasss undelete to for restoring files from an 128 GB SD card. The program could see the SD card, but it stayed grayed out. Have tried at to different win10 PC's with exactly the same result. Two stars, because the program seems incredibly fast to search the hard drives

It worked for me, thanks to author, and it's open and free!

Not bad! Author, thank you and if you could further improve this useful app, it will be very appreciated.

Just saved me some major data loss! Just don't recover to the same drive you recover FROM...

Great Potential but - Blows up with CLR20r3 when attempting to run on 1.5 version. My environment is Win 7 Home Prem. edition, 64 bit.

Very Good, simple and useful. Run by administrator account can operate on C-Drive.

Works very well on my D-Drive: Fast and accurate. But it does not show my C-Drive in the list of drives. I am not sure if it is a setting that I am supposed to configure somewhere - but it would be great if I could get this to work on my C-Drive. I would then give it 5 stars!

Very fast and easily recovered AVIs from an SDCard. Many thanks.

When I run the install on an admin account I get a message telling me that I am not using an administrator account and asks me if I would like to change this. Then it hangs and gives me the following diag msg. Sounds a little suspect to me.
