I used both DIR and ZA (Zero Assumption) last week after reformatting and losing most of my photography files. Both only recovered deleted files, not files that were wiped out by the recovery set-up. And they recovered over 44,000 total...this included almost every avatar ever seen on this pc, every ad and pieces of ads, graphics from games the kids played, general garbage and corrupted files. Neither recovered text files or docs.
If you ever have a need to use them, be prepared for a LOT of work. The recovered files do not come back titled-they come back as image 1,2,3,4, etc.
I mourned the loss of my work, although I was glad I had those programs to at least recover some things that luckily I had viewed more than once and therefore got back. But it took 12 days to sort thru.
