<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">What are the main benefits of AOMEI MyRecover?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">AOMEI MyRecover is a Windows data recovery program that scans hard drives, SSDs, USB sticks and memory cards for deleted or lost files. It restores recoverable data in its original format and file name where possible, without requiring technical knowledge.<br /><br /> <strong>Fast incident response</strong> – Recovers accidentally deleted work files within minutes.<br /> <strong>Three-step workflow</strong> – Select location, scan, restore selected files.<br /> <strong>Targeted recovery</strong> – Filter scan results by name, type or size.<br /> <strong>Original format kept</strong> – Restored files retain their original file format.<br /> <strong>Wide scenario coverage</strong> – Handles deletion, formatting, system crashes, virus damage.<br /> <strong>Scales with demand</strong> – Free, Professional and Technician editions available.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">What does AOMEI MyRecover do?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">AOMEI MyRecover scans Windows storage devices and restores deleted or lost files, including data removed with Shift+Delete or after the Recycle Bin was emptied. The software combines a Quick Scan for recently deleted files with a Deep Scan that searches the drive sector by sector for older or formatted data, and both run in a single pass. It supports more than 200 file formats, including DOCX, XLSX, PDF, JPG, HEIC, MP4, MP3, ZIP and Outlook email files such as MSG and EML. In practice this means a deleted client folder, a formatted camera SD card or files lost in a system crash can usually be located and restored, as long as the data has not been overwritten.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Who is AOMEI MyRecover best suited for?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">MyRecover is built for Windows users who need to fix a concrete data loss incident themselves instead of paying for a recovery lab. Home users benefit because the entire process takes three steps – select the drive, scan, restore – and the filter function finds a single lost photo or document by name or file type instead of forcing them to sort through thousands of scan results. IT staff and repair technicians benefit from the Technician edition, which permits use on unlimited company PCs and allows billable recovery services for third-party clients, something the Free and Professional editions do not cover. The deciding factor is the loss scenario: for deleted files, formatted drives and lost partitions on NTFS, FAT32, exFAT or ReFS volumes, MyRecover covers the typical cases without specialist knowledge.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">What is the difference between MyRecover Free, Professional and Technician?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">The main difference is the recovery volume and the usage scope: the Free edition restores up to 500 MB of data in total, while Professional and Technician remove this limit completely. The paid editions also add file preview before recovery and recovery from a crashed, unbootable Windows PC. Professional is licensed for one computer and personal use; Technician covers unlimited PCs within a company and permits paid recovery services for clients. For anything beyond testing or restoring a few small documents, the 500 MB cap of the Free edition is reached quickly – a single video file can exceed it.</p>

<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Which platforms, file systems and devices does AOMEI MyRecover support?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">MyRecover runs on Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7 as well as Windows Server, and reads the NTFS, FAT32, exFAT and ReFS file systems. Supported storage devices include internal and external hard drives, SSDs, USB flash drives, SD cards and other memory cards, which makes the tool relevant for camera cards and portable drives as well as system disks. macOS drives formatted with APFS or HFS+ are not supported, and there is no Android recovery; iPhone recovery is handled by the separate MyRecover for iOS product, not by the Windows software. Anyone who needs to recover data from a Mac or smartphone should account for this before buying.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">What technical limitations should users know before buying?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">The most important limitation applies to all data recovery software: files can only be restored if the storage space has not yet been overwritten by new data, so the affected drive should be used as little as possible after the loss. Recovered files must be saved to a different partition or disk than the one being scanned, which means a second drive or external storage should be available. The Free edition stops at 500 MB of total recovered data, and file preview plus recovery from an unbootable system require the Professional or Technician edition. MyRecover restores existing lost data; it does not replace a backup, because physically damaged or fully overwritten drives are outside its scope.</p>

<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">What makes AOMEI MyRecover useful in daily work?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">The practical value lies in how quickly a specific incident is resolved: when an employee empties the Recycle Bin and a needed contract disappears, the scan can be filtered directly by file name, type or size, and the file is restored without searching the entire result list. During scanning, results appear progressively, so a recently deleted document found by Quick Scan can be restored while Deep Scan is still running. For support staff, the Technician edition turns this into a repeatable service: one license covers every PC in the company, so the same workflow applies whether the loss happened on a workstation, a USB stick from a colleague or a Windows Server volume. This reduces the cases that must be escalated to an external recovery lab to physically damaged drives.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">What should users check before choosing AOMEI MyRecover?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">First, confirm the lost data was on a Windows-readable file system – NTFS, FAT32, exFAT or ReFS – because Mac and mobile storage are not covered by the Windows version. Second, estimate the data volume: anything above 500 MB requires Professional or Technician, so a folder of photos or videos already rules out the Free edition. Third, check whether the affected PC still boots; if not, only the paid editions can recover data from the crashed system. Finally, anyone recovering data for customers or across multiple company machines needs Technician, since Professional is limited to one PC and personal use.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Frequently asked questions about AOMEI MyRecover</h3>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Can MyRecover restore files that were deleted with Shift+Delete?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Yes. Files removed with Shift+Delete or after emptying the Recycle Bin bypass the normal restore path, but they remain on the disk until overwritten, and MyRecover locates them with its Quick Scan and Deep Scan. The sooner the scan runs after deletion, the higher the chance of complete recovery.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Does AOMEI MyRecover work on Windows Server?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Yes, MyRecover supports Windows Server in addition to Windows 11, 10, 8 and 7. This is relevant for administrators who need to retrieve deleted files from server volumes formatted with NTFS or ReFS without taking the machine to an external service.</p>
<h3 style="margin-top: 30px; margin-bottom: 10px;">Are recovered files returned in their original format?</h3>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Yes, MyRecover restores data in its original file format across the more than 200 supported types, from Office documents and PDFs to HEIC photos and MP4 videos. Files found by Quick Scan typically keep their original names and folder paths, while data reconstructed by Deep Scan may be sorted by file type instead.</p>
