Every day we offer FREE licensed software you’d have to buy otherwise.
Magoshare Data Recovery 2.1 (Win&Mac) was available as a giveaway on April 15, 2018!
Magoshare Data Recovery is one of the most powerful hard drive data recovery software. It not only can recover deleted files, but it also can recover lost files due to format, reformat, erasure, logical error, hard drive crash, OS upgrade/reinstallation, virus infection, partition loss, unexpected power off access denied, and other unknown reasons.
You can recover All File Types from:
-Computer
-Hard Drive
-USB Drive
-Memory Card
-Digital Device
-Other Storage Media.
NB: Lifetime license
Windows 2000/Vista/ 7/ 8/8.1/10 and Windows Server
17.8 MB
$69.95
This software does not have much interest for me to recover erased files. Unlike RECUVA (free), no possibility to choose an isolated directory, it scans the entire disk - which means that it is very slow for a big disk.
Faced to a crash of hard disk system for example, it doesn't implement the possibility of creating an emercy repair disk (or bootable USB) - which limits its use.
In the latter case Lazersoft recovery (free) put in bootable usb, served me 2 times successfully.

I highly recommend this software.
In case of big hard drive problem that had become RAW for example, I tried a lot of recovery softwares without success except with the software "EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard 5.8.5 Pro (not free) that got me back (in 3 days , it must be said) almost all 700 GB of my hard drive.It is an old version, but the new version had failed to do the job.
Now, I regularly make backups with aomei-backupper free that I also recommend. It is much better than to try to recover system or hard drive failure.

.....And everything rolls. Is not life simple when one has knowledge?

NOW if only the program could make a backup image of partitions or whatever it is that the user wants to recover data files etc from, then this program would be Magoshare Data Recovery would be PERFECT, ... but sadly it doesn't have a pre-recovery backup function
Until then RECUVA by Piriform is the only solution I know of that creates a backup image prior to data recovery!

Please - how do you activate this software. It did not come with a "readme.txt", nor was there any message that came up that it was activated.

Eileen Melamed, The GOTD-zip contains a Readme:

Installed internal D drive Win 10 x64 Pro. Ran ok. Didn't use the license yet. When ran it asked which drive to scan. Left on default C. Forgetaboutit. Began super long scan. Made some lunch & only 15% done showing at least 1M files scanned. Initially didn't seem to allow scanning of just 1 folder to test. It did seem to show the folders being scanned but drilling into one failed to force program to narrow scan to only that one. Uninstalling.
btw MostIWant has a USB memory card program give. Recuva stays the fave. Appreciate the lifetime free offer for a change.
End of install sends you to their site for some info & free uninstalled prg (prefer Revo uninstaller).

Thank you very much, seems like a good one to have.
Installed easily on WinXP. Tried to install also on USB stick, no success so far. Did not get an option to install on it. Anyone can help? Perhaps someone from Magoshare?
Now that it is installed in C/ProgramFiles, will it find and recover (from certain areas or folders) files on the C HD on which it is installed?
Thanks again.

WOW! I am generally very skeptical about any GOTD programs, and paranoid to the point I install them on a "trash box" first, just to make sure they are OK. I just installed this easily, flawlessly on my Windows 10 live box. I have an SD card that contains JPEG and RAW images, and that card has those images deleted, and formatted. It not only found all those "lost" images, but when I clicked for thumnail views, it even shows the thumbnails for the RAW files, not just the JPEGs. I use a weird format, and *most* of the programs I try will not show the images for the RAW files. This one is a definate keeper, and I am SO glad I checked in for today's Giveaway. WOW!! WOW!! There was no BS installing, either. No signups, give your emails, jack around... just plain install and here's your key right in the readme file. WELL DONE Magoshare and GOTD! Thank you!!

James, after I saw your message, I returned to the SD card to re-evaluate and truly recover. This time, I selected a couple RAW files, each from different cameras - because it not only recovered what I previously formatted, it found things from a couple years ago, long since deleted. I also selected a Video file that it found. I asked it to recover the items. It 100% successfully recovered every thing I asked it to grab, and I went in and hit "play" on the video just to be sure it wasn't just the video image clip but would actually run. I used VLC and it ran perfectly. I'm super surprised, because I have many of these programs. VLC was the only program I tried, but it did run perfectly. I'm sure sorry to hear of your difficulty.

The developer claims:
.."it also can recover lost files due to format, reformat, erasure, logical error, hard drive crash, OS upgrade/reinstallation, virus infection, partition loss, unexpected power off access denied, and other unknown reasons."
Since 99% of all HD failures occurs on drive C: and this software is installed and registered on drive C:, how is it possible to recover drive C: if it failed to boot or was reformatted by mistake?
Unless a recovery software creates an USB self booting drive with this software installed on it, the claims by this developer is bogus.

Marty, If the C:-drives fails, take it out and attach it to another PC.
And start the recovery with the Windows and recovery on that PC.
OR build a live-USB/CD with recovery and work with that.
This evening I let examine a defective drive, a backup-HD and this software could recover some of the content:

and some of the recovered files:

Marty,
It looks like it, that they heard you.
Today, Monday there is a program for you.
"or you can use it to clone an existing Windows 10/8/7 OS installation to a USB drive as portable Windows. "
So if you have installed Magoshare Data Recovery 2.1 in Windows, today, monday, you can create a fully functional Win-USB-stick with recovery.

Haven't tried this as I have another that does the job for me, but one sentence stood out from the above offer:
"NB: Lifetime license" (I expect this doesn't include updates, but nevertheless better than 6 or 12 mths)
Now that's a true giveaway! Well done Magoshare and GOTD.

Is it portable ?
(if the hard drive crashes - then the program is not worth much)
I can't find the information on their website.

WinXP is not mentioned as supported, but is it?
Quite a few (me included) run XP-PRO-SP3, so was wondering if I should try it on my XP PC.
Thanks for any help.

Eldad,
Linux Mint is a great replacement for XP that I've been using, no beatings expressed nor implied.

Installed and registered with no problems on Win 10 (64) but it failed to detect and of the memory cards I tried and only detected 1 of my four external USB drives. Crashed during a scan of one of my internal drives. Rebooted and tried again but still crashed as soon as the scan started. Doesn't live up to the description given. Uninstalled.
