Not ready for public release and should be still in private Alpha testing phase... Certainly NOT version 1.0 worthy. Activation wizard interface does NOT WORK the Activate button never becomes activated so one cannot submit the license key to activate it. The Disk Repair tools are just calling the built in Disk Managment MMC snap in in a sperate window and even worse the Disk Repair tool itself just spawn an instance of CHKDSK forced to make changes to the target disk and unlink the volume if files are still in use. It will likely crash any program forced to be unlinked from the files it is access and open files that had been partially written may become corrupted. And CHKDSK /F is renowned for deleting files that were still usable due to flaws in the file systems records for those files and making the drive that may have been bootable but faulty to become unbootable. USE WITH CAUTION!!!
There apears to be no facility to create USB bootable media to recover data from a single drive unbootable windows system... or recover data from a windows system partion without booting it as the mere act of booting a windows system partion writes megabytes of data to that partition and potentially overwrites lost data that could otherwise have been recovered but not any more! And no facility to both create an image of drive to have data recoverered from the image file and not have to rely upon the orignal physical media that may still be being written to or be failing.
Seems this developer has not taken the chance to learn from the plethora of other paid for and free data recovery tools that have gone before and is just making it's own silly mistakes as if the idea of Data recovery was a new concept of technolgy and had to be re-invented... as well as using already exisitng free but flawed Microsoft tools as if they are functions of this developers ingenuity... as well as pirating FFMPEG binaries by redistributing them and plagerising their functionality in a closed source product against the GPLv3 licence they were made accessible to other opensource devlopers but NOT to closed source devlopers to dsitribute and use and not give credit to FFMPEG project and without providing a copy of the license and access to the specific source code used to build the binaries they are distributing illegally.

Caroline, TrueCrypts only key vulnerability was once a truecrypt volume was already open the cached key stored in private memory was readable under certain very specific circumstances. Other than that as I have read it OFFLINE TrueCrypt volumes are not vulnerable to key recovery tools of any kind and the only remaining option is a custom built brute force recovery utility to try through the trillions of possible keys and cipher combinations to try and make sense of the encrypted data. This is the problem with strong data encryption that provides no back door... you lose the key, you lose the encrypted data. Strong Encryption should only be used when it is really necesary and data self destruction is factored into the system disaster recovery protocols.
Sorry it's probably not what YOU want to read but to a security concious archivist of top secret clasified data it is the whole point of truely strong encryption like TrueCrypt and its descendants.

Donemax Data Recovery 1.0 I downloaded two days ago. Does not have a clear description where and how many discs and partitions and USB ports are there. And not tried. Deleted!

Even the uninstaller is BUILT WRONG! It launches a browser window claiming:

"Uninstall Successful

You have successfully removed Donemax Data Recovery for Windows from your computer. Contact us if you have any question: support@donemax.com"

When the uninstaller window is still sitting there ASKING me if I really want to completely remove Donemax Data Recovery Trial 1.0 and all of its components.... and the browser launched a window over the top claiming the uninstall had already happened and was succesful.

Ordering procedures in a program and uninstaller is completely fundimental to making programs that WORK as expected and intended! If the flow of procedures is done in a haphazard way all sorts of bugs WILL result, like activation button not become usable or being told an uninstall succeded when it had not really happened yet and is in fact WAITING FOR USER INPUT!

Installed per GOTD instructions. When attempting to register, the code is inserted but it's impossible to hit the "Activate" button. No problem putting the code in, but cannot register.
Installation went perfectly, as well, but not being able to activate renders the software useless.
Please advise.
Thank you.
