Features and Benefits of FAT Recovery Software
Magic FAT Recovery is designed to recover information from hard drives, USB drives, flash, and memory cards bearing the FAT/exFAT file system. The tool can unerase deleted files and rebuild damaged disks to their original state by restoring the original file and folder structure.
Undelete Files and Recover Data
- Undeletes files from healthy, formatted, damaged, and inaccessible FAT/exFAT partitions;
- Quick scan mode recovers files in minutes;
- In-depth recovery with content-aware analysis.
Rebuild Corrupted Partitions
- Rebuilds damaged partitions by reconstructing the file system complete with original files and folders;
- Recovers formatted partitions and repartitioned drives;
- Refurbishes media to “as new” state perfect for long-term use.
Content-Aware Analysis
The content-aware analysis is Magic’s trademark technology. Employed in comprehensive scan mode, content-aware analysis performs an in-depth search of the entire content of the drive in order to locate as many recoverable files as possible.
By scanning the entire content of the drive, content-aware analysis ensures that no single file is missed even if there is no file system left on the disk. Thanks to content-aware search, Magic FAT Recovery can recover files that no other tool can.
Rebuild Corrupted Volumes
Based on the information gathered with content-aware scan, Magic FAT and FAT32 undelete system can re-create the entire volume by rebuilding corrupted file system from scratch. The new volume will contain all original files and folders, providing the same folder structure as the original.
FAT and exFAT Recovery
Magic FAT Recovery is designed to operate on volumes formatted with FAT and exFAT file systems. This includes all memory cards used in digital cameras and portable audio players, most USB flash drives, older hard drives, and many types of external storage media. If you need to recover NTFS-formatted drives, use Magic Partition Recovery instead.

Features Overview
Recovers all types of files from all types of storage media
Magic FAT file recovery software can recover all types of files from all kinds of storage devices. Deleted files can be undeleted in a few moments with a quick file system scan. Files deleted directly or removed from the Recycle Bin can be restored in a matter of minutes regardless of their extension. Thanks to the company’s content-aware analysis technology, hundreds of recognizable file types can be recovered even if the drive is formatted, repartitioned, or unreadable. Even if the drive no longer appears as a drive letter, Magic FAT undelete software can still analyze a physical storage device looking for missing partitions.
Magic FAT data recovery software has been tested with various devices based on different storage technologies, such as magnetic hard drives and flash-based solid-state drives. Magic FAT Recovery can be used to recover files from hard disks and SSD drives, USB flash drives, and most types of memory cards, including full-size, mini, and micro versions of SD/SDHC/SDHC cards, Compact Flash, Memory Stick, as well as the traditionally mentioned but obsolete formats such as MMC and xD.
Instant analysis
The tool offers an innovative “Fast scan” feature that can search for deleted files on healthy volumes in a matter of seconds. Unlike competing data recovery tools that can spend several minutes reading the file system, Magic exFAT recovery software locates deleted file records in real-time, offering faster than usual performance for recently deleted files. As opposed to competing tools performing a bunch of small-read operations, a fast scan performs a single, consecutive read of the area on the disk occupied by the file system. The tool analyzes the data in the computer’s internal memory, resulting in much higher performance compared to reading every single record about individual files.
Please note that this feature is only recommended for existing, healthy partitions. If you attempt to perform a fast scan on a corrupted volume or use the feature on a disk containing any number of deleted partitions, you can miss files that would otherwise be recoverable. For damaged, corrupted, inaccessible, formatted, and repartitioned disks, you can use the slower content-aware analysis.
Restores corrupted and unavailable partitions
Thanks to the use of content-aware analysis, Magic FAT32 recovery tools can recover information from corrupted and inaccessible partitions, repartitioned hard drives, and formatted volumes. Magic FAT32 recovery software will perform a thorough scan of the entire physical drive in order to locate unavailable or deleted partitions and then analyze the entire volume looking for recoverable files and folders. Magic FAT32 repair tool will attempt to re-create the entire file and folder system complete with multiple-level folders and long file names, effectively restoring the content of the entire partition on a different disk or another storage media. After your data is completely recovered, you may attempt to recover the original broken partition by repairing the damaged system structures with ScanDisk (a Windows tool).
Using Magic exFAT data recovery tool on damaged disks is completely safe, as all access is performed strictly in read-only mode. Because of that, Magic FAT and exFAT file recovery will not mess with your disk system structures or the file system.
Offers easy access to advanced features with Windows Explorer-like user interface
The wizard-based user interface is simple, convenient, and straightforward. However, advanced users may need more flexibility in fine-tuning the process or configuring the settings. To allow advanced access to the internal data recovery mechanisms, we implemented a convenient Explorer-like user interface to go along with the wizards. This advanced user interface allows easy access to all the advanced features with the convenience of Windows Explorer-like performance. The familiar user interface will make seasoned computer users and computer professionals feel immediately at home, adjusting all the required settings with just a few mouse clicks.
In addition, by using the data recovery tool in Explorer-like mode, you can browse through deleted files or navigating information stored on a deleted partition just like you would normally browse your computer. You can click deleted files to preview, mark them for recovery, and enter compressed archives as if they were folders.
Working with drive images
To make the recovery from corrupted media even safer, the Magic FAT32 recovery tool provides the ability to make a virtual snapshot of the disk being recovered. The snapshot is a complete, bit-precise image of the entire drive saved into a single file on another (healthy) drive.
By creating a virtual drive image, Magic FAT and exFAT repair program reduces the number of disk access operations to absolute minimum by reading the entire content of the disk in a single continuous read as opposed to multiple small, random access operations. All subsequent operations such as scanning, previewing, and recovering files are performed with that virtual image instead of the original drive.
This greatly increases the chance of successful recovery for badly damaged and heavily worn disks, keeping the number of disk access operations as low as possible. In addition, the snapshot can serve as a bit-precise backup of the entire disk or partition.

What Others Are Saying
Phew… I’ve just finished recovering everything from a flash drive. Don’t know what happened to them, but they’re all back now. It worked great.
I think this is perfect for fixing problems with flash drives.
Never, ever put your card into other’s phones! My friend’s phone ‘initialized’ my memory card without even asking. Everything was lost! I tried too many tools before this one. Only Magic FAT Recovery was able to recover the files.
Good, thanks. Works great. I tried other tools, no help at all. This was the only tool that was able to deal with a bunch of documents carried on an old USB flash drive. Took me less than 15 minutes to recover a 4 GB drive.
