Obviously, to recover files from flash card media that is connected to a Windows computer you cannot expect to use a Mac or Linux recovery program. Fortunately Remo Software makes data recovery tools for every currently used operating system from Windows, Mac and Linux. Because solid state digital media such as compact flash drives and camera memory cards are fairly small in size compared to the overall storage capacity of the a computer’s internal hard disk drive, recovery of lost or deleted files from these devices using the Remo software tool can be accomplished in just minutes.

Begin by downloading onto a working Windows based PC the Remo Software data recovery tool for Windows. Next you will need to connect by means of a cable the crashed hard drive to the motherboard of your working PC onto which you have installed the Remo Software. This is far more simple than it sounds and instructions as to how to do this are included with your software installation package. You can then open the data recovery program and direct it to scan through the crashed hard drive. Even though the hard drive was unable to open using its own operating system, the combination of the working PC and the powerful data recovery software program from Remo will allow you to do so. Within minutes the software will scan through your entire hard drive and return to you a list of all existing and recently deleted files.
