      1. Stellar does not repair corrupt files. I tried. I does not work. FAQ:

        QUOTE: “Can the software repair the images that are not opening after the recovery?
        The software is a recovery application and cannot repair any corrupted images. The data is recovered in the same form as it is available in the media.”
