RecoveryFox AI
RecoveryFox AI scans Windows storage for deleted, formatted, or lost files and lets users preview results before recovery. Individuals, IT experts, and business teams can use it to restore files from drives and removable storage.
Who it's for
- IT experts recovering files after deletion, formatting, or logical file-system problems on Windows storage.
- Business and professional users who need to recover files from a PC, external hard drive, USB drive, or SD card.
- Individuals who want to preview recoverable files before paying to restore them.
Not the right fit if…
- Mac users: the listed software availability and system requirements are for Windows.
- People with a mechanically damaged drive making clicking or grinding noises: the page advises powering it off and consulting a professional data recovery service.
How it fits your workflow
Install RecoveryFox AI on a Windows PC, preferably on a different drive from the one affected by data loss. Select the affected drive, partition, or Recycle Bin.
Run Quick Scan for recently deleted files, then use AI Scan to search more deeply for fragmented data. Filter and preview the results.
Choose files to restore and save them to a different drive so the recovery process does not overwrite data on the affected drive.
Pricing
Free: Scanning and previewing lost files are available for free; upgrading is required to recover files.

Frequently asked questions
Is RecoveryFox AI safe?
The page says the installer contains no bundled software, ads, or malware and is verified clean by major antivirus engines. It also says the software can work offline, with files and scan results staying on the local device.
How long does a large-drive scan take?
Scan time depends on drive size and health, file system, and hardware speed. The page says smaller drives or limited data may take a few minutes to an hour, while larger or extensive recoveries may take hours or days.
Can it recover data from a failed SSD?
The page says it can recover data in many cases involving deletion, formatting, partition loss, or file-system errors, but success may be lower if the SSD is physically damaged or TRIM has permanently erased the data.
Will RecoveryFox AI recover all my data?
The page does not guarantee recovery of all data. It says recovery may be possible when users stop using the affected device promptly, and claims up to a 98% recovery rate for typical logical data-loss cases.
Where should I save recovered files?
The page recommends saving recovered files to a different drive from the one they were lost from, to avoid overwriting data.
