DMDE is a powerful software for data searching, editing, and recovery on FAT and NTFS disks. It recovers directory structure in some complicated cases when other software gives heap of files with obscure names, and also recovers some files which are not recoverable by other software.
DMDE has a number of freeware features such as disk editing, simple partition management (e.g. easy partition undelete), RAID constructing, disk imaging, single file recovery.
DMDE supports FAT12/16, FAT32, NTFS, and works under Windows 98/ME/2K/XP/Vista/7, DOS, Linux.
Unique thorough search algorithms effectively reconstruct directory structure and recover files after serious disk damages (such as format, partition manager failure, and other). It is possible to find data quickly without a full scan in the case of minor filesystem damages.
Simple partition manager finds and restores accidentally removed partitions using information from boot sectors of FAT, NTFS, exFAT, and superblocks of Ext2/3/4, and from their backup copies. Partitioning is displayed in the form useful for analysis and error correction (errors are highlighted).
Disk editor is compatible with the most recent Windows versions and supports automatic volume locking during writing to volume areas. With disk editor you can view, edit, and navigate through different disk structures (such as MBR partition tables, FAT and MFT file tables, boot sectors, directories and files of FAT and NTFS). Cluster map allows finding the file located at a specified cluster or sector.
RAID constructor is for virtual reconstruction of RAID-0, RAID-1, RAID-4, RAID-5 (including delayed parity), JBOD/spanned disks.
Disk imaging includes creating, writing images back to disk, disk cloning, and supports handling of bad sectors.
DMDE supports national file names, disk images, large disks, large files, large sectors, compressed NTFS files, and other specific features.
