Hi, STRANGE!!.. After unzipping Installation File and running it - my Zemana Antimalware terminated Setup leaving only readme text in that Folder. Very ODD..
I switched Zemana Real time Protection off for a moment and repeated unzipping/installing this Program again. It installed itself on Drive C without any CHOICE(!), that's bad enough, I was going to install it on my Flash drive, like many other Programs I 'carry about'. I also managed to register/activate it and it put shortcut on my desktop naturally.

As soon as i switched Zemana back on - Smart Data Recovery5 was promptly terminated and put into Quarantine, telling me I would be putting my PC at risk trying to reverse Zemana's action.. I have to say I live with Zemana protection quite happily, it serves me well and it's not stupidly 'overprotective', but on this occasion - it will NOT allow me to even RUN this Program!! I install many Programs and cannot remember Zemana acting this way with any previous GOTD (alone) Installations!??

Conclusion - sadly, I cannot even test if this Program is good, or bad. What attracted me to it was a choice of selecting single File, or picture for recovery..
Any help or hope (with Software classed as Malware)??

Installed with unwrapped signed installer and activated ok.

A cursory look in all the likely places on their website does not reveal any geographic location where the company is registerd.

Their domain is registered via godaddy and does not reveal anything about the registrant other than:
Registrant Name: Alexander Rodichev
Registrant Organization: Smart PC Solutions, Inc

The digital signature on the provided installer has the signer as:

CN = Smart PC Solutions, Inc.
O = Smart PC Solutions, Inc.
L = Alexandria
S = Virginia
C = US

The program allows us to set a path to save restored items to. BUT does not allow us to create a new folder during the selection phase and we cannot edit the folders path directly so the folder has to be created externally in a different program!
It does see FAT-32 and NTFS drive letters but is unlikely to see flash drives or local hard drive partitions with a broken filesystem and others that don't have a drive letter assigned.

It installs two icons on the desktop without asking permission, one for this program and the second one to promote another of their products on their website. The default output folder that is set is located as a sub-folder on the desktop, so without any changes this installer consumes 3 icon spaces on a desktop which is very greedy!

Like most simple data recovery programs not meant for technicians use this does not allow us to make an image file of a drive with lost data on and then scan the image file to reduce the problem of deep scanning failing drives causing further data loss before recovery can even be attempted.

I did get it to scan a USB3 FAT-32 flash drive it offered several files that were deleted and had mostly recognisable names, losing the first letter of the file names as that's how FAT based filesystems flag a directory entry as deleted.
I let it try and recover a 300MB AVI file, which it saved to the preselected output folder and opened a windows explorer window of that folder on completion. The file did not play as the files data had been overwritten by other files, and some of those had been securely erased.

It is what it is, has some bad habits but some might have a use for it if they don't have other better programs available.

Thank you GOTD and Smart PC Solutions. I was able to download and install without issue. I have been needing a program like this for a while now. I have a old corrupted 750 GB IDE drive, that has so many irreplaceable files on it. I hope this works.will comment later with an update.

it doesn't recognize FAT 32 drives. only NTFS

timwashu, are you sure? they do include "or even the contents of a flash drive or mp3 player," in the description and most flash drives use FAT-32 with some newer larger ones using ExFAT and no mp3 player or USB flash drive I am aware of uses NTFS and SSD drives are not normally refered to as "flash drives" that is normally the name for USB sticks or thumb drives!

I get an error "Licensing key has reached its usage limit" when I try to activate it.

However, I'm sure that Smart PC Tools will fix the issue soon.
