In its work, the program scans storage devices – hard drives and flash drives connected to the PC, for residual traces of any deleted files, and then informs the user about the possibility of recovery. Disk Drill uses two types of scans – fast or superficial and deep (thorough). In turn, the Recovery process can be subjected to individual objects as well as entire partitions.

Another useful option of the tool is so-called data protection. The essence of it lies in the Deletion Log, which allows you to restore files in a matter of seconds to several minutes.
