Refindo Data Recovery
Recover deleted files on Windows and macOS.
Scan and preview for free, then pay only when you're ready.
What Refindo does
Scan deep, preview first, recover to a safe destination. Your files stay local.
Quick Scan & Deep Scan
Start with a fast metadata scan, then go deeper with a read-only sector scan for formatted or damaged volumes. Nothing is written to your source drive.
Preview Before You Pay
Run a free scan and preview supported images, text files, PDFs, and Word or Excel documents. Know exactly what you can recover before committing.
Local, Private Workflow
Your files never leave your device. Refindo scans and previews locally — no cloud upload, no remote processing.
Works With Everyday Storage
Scan internal drives, external hard drives, USB drives, and SD cards recognized by Windows or macOS.
Safer Recovery to a Separate Drive
Recover selected files to a different destination drive, reducing overwrite risk on the original source volume.

Scan. Preview. Recover.
A transparent workflow with no guesswork.
Scan Your Drive
Choose a disk and start with Quick Scan for fast metadata-based recovery. If key files are missing, switch to Deep Scan for a broader read-only search. Nothing is written to your source drive.
Preview What Matters
Filter by file type, location, and time. Preview supported images, text files, PDFs, and Word or Excel documents before you decide. Verify recoverability first, then choose only the files you need.
Recover Safely
Select the files and restore them to a safe destination in a few clicks. Your recovered data is ready to use immediately. Recommended: recover to a different drive to avoid overwrite.
Simple pricing. No surprises.
Find your files first. Pay only when you're ready to recover.
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers before you buy.
Is scanning really free?
Yes. You can download Refindo, run a full scan, and preview recoverable files without entering a card.
Does scanning write anything to the source drive?
Refindo is designed around a read-only scan workflow. You inspect the source drive first, then recover selected files to a different destination.
Can I preview files before I pay?
Yes. Refindo is built around a preview-first flow, so you can verify what is recoverable before purchasing a plan.
Does Refindo upload my files to the cloud?
No. Recovery operations are local. Files stay on your device during scan and preview.
What can I verify before I buy?
You can run a free scan, review recoverable results, and preview supported file types before deciding whether to pay for recovery.
What systems and file systems does Refindo support?
Refindo currently supports macOS 12+ (Intel and Apple Silicon) and Windows 10/11 (64-bit), with recovery workflows for NTFS, FAT32, exFAT, and APFS.
Why should I recover files to another drive?
Saving recovered files to a different destination helps reduce overwrite risk on the original source drive, which is safer for difficult recovery cases.
What if recovery is not successful?
Start with the free scan and preview to evaluate recoverability first. Paid plans also include a 7-day money-back guarantee.

Start from the exact failure you see: a Mac disk warning, an APFS volume that disappeared, an exFAT drive that will not mount, or an SD card asking to format. Each guide explains what to avoid, when recovery is realistic, and how to scan before writing anything back to the source.
