    i used it 4 times ,
    to scan 16gig sd card takes 30 minutes,approx.
    it recovered about 90 per cent of file,s ,
    green = good ,easy to recover,
    red = bad , file damaged cant be recovered.
    do a full scan.
    you can put in file type,
    egjust scan for video, file,s avi,mp4.to save time,
    or documents scan for documents.
    pdf,txt.
    focus on important files first,
    eg video.
    or documents .
    i dont think there,s any limit.
    pro version has techsupport

    you can jsut scan for video,
    or document,s
    or music files to save time

    even if it can t recover all data ,
    it gives you a list of all the files on the drive,
    avi,mp4.mp3, doc,s ,pdf,s , mkv video.etc

    I always had to quick format the drive first before i used recuva to get the data back ,i copied the data to a working drive ,
    recovering the most important files first.
