About Paraben's Data Recovery Stick

Welcome to Paraben's Data Recovery Stick!

Paraben's Data Recovery Stick allows you to scan almost any type of storage device (computers, SD cards, USB drives, etc.) and recover deleted data from many popular file formats.

The Data Recovery Stick can recover data from the following types of data storage devices:

System Requirements

The following requirements must be met to use the Data Recovery Stick:

Getting Started

Paraben's Data Recovery Stick allows you to perform recovery of deleted data from any FAT 32 or NTFS storage device that shows up as a drive in Windows.

Data Recovery Process

Deleted files are recovered from the investigated storage and placed into the Recovered Data folder in the following hierarchy: Recovered Data<Recovery date and time><Disk label from which data was recovered><File type> folder. Recovered files are sorted and placed into the corresponding file type folders.

To perform a data recovery:

  1. Plug your Data Recovery Stick into your computer and wait for Windows to ask you what you want to do. Select "Open folder to view files". If Windows doesn't ask this, go to My Computer and open the drive labeled "Data Recovery Stick".
  2. Open the file called “DataRecoveryStickLauncher.exe”.
  3. On the main page, in the Source type box, select whether the data will be recovered from a logical or physical drive. A hard drive may have multiple "partitions" or logical drives. If you want to recover any data possible on a computer, it is recommended that you select the physical drive. If you know the data you are looking for is stored on a logical drive, you can save time by selecting that logical drive only.
  4. In the Recover data from list, select the disk(s) from which data will be recovered. Click Refresh to refresh the list of available disks if you attach a new storage device to be recovered.
  5. Choose where to save the recovered files:
    • In the Recover data to field, select the drive and folder where the recovered data will be placed by either choosing a previous location or clicking the Browse... button and navigating to the drive/folder to recover data to.*
    • By default, the Browse... button starts at the RecoveredData folder on the Data Recovery Stick.
  6. Click Recover Data.
  7. The data recovery process will begin.

* Please note, it is recommended that you recover data to the Data Recover Stick first. If you choose to save recovered data to the same drive you are recovering from, you risk overwriting deleted files before the stick has a chance to recover them. If you run out of space on your Data Recovery Stick, you may want to attach an external USB drive to recover the remaining data to.

To stop the data recovery, click Stop Recovery.

Screenshot Description: The application's main interface displays options to select between 'Logical drive' and 'Physical drive' for data source. A list of detected drives (C:, D:, E:, F:, Z:) is shown with their available space. Users can specify the destination folder for recovered data using a 'Browse...' button. A 'Refresh' button updates the drive list, and a prominent 'Recover data' button initiates the process. Icons for 'Update', 'Help', and 'About' are also present.

Forensic Mode

Paraben's Data Recovery Stick can be started directly from the USB stick without starting Windows on the computer. This is designed to work under digital forensic requirements for handling evidence. The drive being recovered will have no changes made to it. To begin, insert the USB stick, turn on the computer, and Paraben's Data Recovery Stick will start. This allows you to guarantee data integrity on the computer to be investigated.

Please note that your computer must be set to boot to a FAT 32 USB device in the BIOS.

To start the Data Recovery Stick from the USB stick without starting Windows (Forensic Mode):

  1. Insert your Data Recovery Stick into a USB port on the computer.
  2. Start the computer and, during the boot-up screen, enter BIOS (press F2, Del, etc., depending on the specific BIOS of your computer).
  3. Select the Boot tab and then select Hard Disk Drives. Make sure that the USB stick is set as the 1st Drive.
  4. On the Boot tab, select Boot Device Priority and check if the USB stick is set as the 1st Boot Device.
  5. On the Advanced tab, select USB Configuration > USB Mass Storage Device Configuration.
  6. Set the USB stick as the Device #1 and set the Emulation Type as Hard Disk.
  7. Press F10 to save changes and exit the BIOS.
  8. Paraben's Data Recovery Stick will start without starting Windows OS.

Report Creation

When data recovery is performed, a report is automatically created in the Recovered Data folder in the following format: Recovered Data<Recovery date and time><Recovery date and time>.txt.

Screenshot Description: A Windows File Explorer window shows the directory structure for recovered data. The path displayed is << RecoveredData 01-19-11_15-50-55 ►.
