2. First try a "Fast Format Recover" - the main reason to try this first is because it is FAST - i.e. it should finish in less than 20 minutes and if it works it will get all your files back with full file and folder names.

3. IF the Fast Format Recover does not work, next try the "Complete Format Recover". In almost all cases you only need to search for the default selected file types (.doc, .xls, .ppt, .avi, .zip, .bmp, .jpeg, .pdf).
I have the latest version which is version 3.98. I tried Fast Format Recover, but it didn't even find one single avi file. Then I did Complete Format Recover, but only selected AVI. Half way through, I selected the rest. Do you think I should do it again with those files types selected from the start?

Also, I downloaded something in the drive that I'm recovering and it might have tampered with it. I'm not too sure. I see all all of my AVI files, but no folder structure!

One more thing, when are you **** going to implement a save thing where we can just save the searched files? If you **** are planning on that, when will it be released?
