Three simple steps

Send your file

Request a free evaluation and securely upload your corrupt or damaged file.

2

3

Get your data back

We recover the data and return a working file. No recovery, no charge.

Why FileRepair.net

Your file, your software, unchanged

Recovering data should not cost you anything beyond the recovery itself. It does not here.

It comes back in the format it left in

Your recovered file is returned in the same format and the same version it arrived as. It opens in the application you already have — not a converted, flattened, or "modernised" approximation of it.

You never have to buy newer software

We do not make a licence, an upgrade, or a subscription a condition of getting your own data back. If the version you run today opened the file before it broke, it will open it after we are done.

Abandoned formats are still our problem, not yours

A great deal of what reaches us was written by software that no longer exists, or a version its own vendor stopped supporting long ago. We work at the file-structure level, so we do not need a live copy of the original program to read it.

Nobody remotes into your machine

There is no screen-sharing session and nothing to install. You upload a copy over a private, time-limited link; your original stays untouched on your own computer for the whole engagement.

Free evaluation, then a fixed quote

You find out what can be recovered before you spend anything. The quote that follows is a fixed figure agreed before work starts — no hourly meter, no revised estimate halfway through, and no charge at all if the data cannot be recovered.

Your file is deleted afterwards

Once the recovery is complete your data is held securely for 14 days and then destroyed — immediately instead, if you ask. It is used to perform your recovery and for nothing else. A mutual NDA can be signed before any file changes hands.

Our own engineers, start to finish

The recovery is done in-house by the people who built the tooling. Your file is not passed to a subcontractor, sold on to another lab, or shipped overseas to whoever quoted lowest that week.

Hundreds of formats, one relationship

Databases, accounting company files, spreadsheets, documents, email stores, archives and backups are all handled by the same team. You are not sent away to find a different specialist for the next broken thing.

We answer to nobody but you

We are independent of every software vendor whose formats we repair. Nothing we earn depends on moving you to a newer product, so our advice about whether to migrate is worth exactly what it says.
