5.9.1. Supported File Formats for Previewing

Stellar Data Recovery can preview the types of files listed on this page. If a file type isn't listed, you can still recover it using the software.

However, if the file type is listed and you're having trouble previewing the file, it might be because the file is severely corrupted and partially recovered, or it might be too big to be previewed (more than 500 MB). In that case, it is recommended to save the file and check using the file's default software.
