        1. Hello Mohsin,

          Our software does not decrypt the files, however, you can scan free download the drive and check the preview of files by Stellar data recovery software.

      3. Its one of the finest & easy to use data recovery software I ever used. Very happy with the neat & clean interface. I recently salvage very critical email files using it.

        1. Hello,

          Thank you for contacting Stellar Data Recovery.

          We would like to inform you that if you are able to see the preview in Stellar software after performing the scan on drive then you can recover it in same manner as per the preview.

          You may download the demo versions of the software from below mentioned link:-

          Windows: Download Link

          Mac: Download Link

          The software is able to recover the data from the drives. However, there is no decryption option available in the software.

          Please try the demo version and let us know the outcome.

          Feel free to contact us for further assistance.

          1. We tried the licensed version of Stellar Data Recovery and after scanning we could see the files , but after recovery when we try to open the files ,it is showing as “Damaged or Corrupted” and we already spoke with your technical person about this and they couldn’t fix it also.

          2. Hi Akhil,
            We would like to inform you that, the software works on “what you see is what you can recover”. That means the files will be recovered in the same manner as you were able to see them in the preview window after the scanning is complete. If the preview for the recovered files is not available the recovery is not possible, unfortunately.

      4. Is it possible for the laptop to get affected due to virus even after downloading an anti-virus program?

        1. Hello Nick,

          Yes, the software are very effective in recovering all important images, audio, video, email files from hard drives.
