Browse before you scan
Browse existing folders first to see what is still available. Some recently deleted files may appear without a full-disk scan.
SCAN AND BROWSE FREE
Windows data recovery. Find your deleted files.
Look for deleted documents, photos, and videos on your Windows drives. Scan and browse results for free before deciding whether to purchase a recovery license. Save recovered files to a different drive.
WHY FILEUPGO DATA RECOVERY
Built for serious recovery work.
Deep NTFS reconstruction
Reads raw $MFT records and ATTRIBUTE_LIST chains to locate deleted files that basic Recycle Bin tools may miss, including heavily fragmented files. NTFS-compressed and EFS-encrypted files are detected but cannot be recovered in this version.
Recycle Bin and deleted records
Recovers standard $Recycle.Bin entries and deleted MFT records. Files whose original folders cannot be determined are grouped by file type under Reconstructed Files.
Find files by signature
Scans raw disk data for recognizable file signatures when file-system metadata is no longer available. Results are cross-referenced with MFT data to restore original paths when possible.
Your files stay on your computer
Scanning and recovery are performed locally. File contents are never uploaded. FileUpGo Data Recovery sends basic device and app information only for licensing and policy checks.
Download and scan before you buy
Download, scan, and browse results for free. Check the files you need before choosing a recovery plan. A license cannot restore data that has already been overwritten.

Windows file recovery guides
Deleted a file, emptied the Recycle Bin, or lost files on removable storage? Start with the checks that fit your situation before scanning.
How to recover deleted files on Windows
Start with the Recycle Bin and backups. If neither has the file, check what a recovery scan can—and cannot—tell you.
Can you recover files after emptying the Recycle Bin?
An empty bin removes the normal Restore option. Backups or surviving file data may still offer a way back.
Recover lost files from a USB drive or SD card on Windows
Separate accidental deletion from a connection problem or damaged device before attempting recovery.
