StrongRecovery Portable is a great way to attempt to recover lost data from many types of memory cards and drives. If you've got important photos, videos, or even documents on SD, CF, MS, or MMC cards or simply would like to recover sensitive items from an old HDD, this application is for you. If we're to add the portability factor to this whole equation, you'd end up with a must-have tool in your emergency PC app kit.

The whole system seems to be thought out as a wizard process in which the user follows a certain fixed number of steps in order to figure out which particular device needs to be checked, how to do it, and more importantly how fast. Start by simply selecting the particular items you'd like to scan for lost data. The program will ask the user to input some information regarding the selected item's file system. Was there another system previously? Is the file system damaged? All these questions can be answered by simply ticking them if they are true in your case.

Now, if you've conducted some data recovery procedures before, you know by now that RAW files are created between you launching a certain action and the actual result of this action. In other words, this intermediary form of storage files can be found just like you'd find residue within a bottle of ketchup. Thus, this program can be set to find these files as well, ultimately allowing one to search all levels of storage within the selected location.

StrongRecovery Portable is a great way to recover data without actually installing the application on your system. You can run it directly from a USB stick or other similar removable storage. The bottom line with such programs is that they should be in all user's emergency app kits without a doubt.
