Mac file recovery
Mac file recovery may be necessary in case of data deletion, formatting or damage. In this article, I will talk about some methods and tools for successfully recovering lost files on a Mac computer.
1. Time Machine: If you have activated the Time Machine backup function, you can return to the previous system save point and extract the necessary files from there. To do this, connect a backup disk or use an AirPort Time Capsule (if available).
2. "Guest Account" utility: Starting with macOS High Sierra 10.13.x, Apple added a new feature - "Guest". It allows you to create a temporary user account without a password for quick access to the Mac OS X operating system without using the main account with administrator rights.
In part, it can be used as a way to get data back after technical problems
3.Data Recovery Wizard for MAC: This software will help you scan your hard drive and find deleted or lost data. There is also an optional file selection that will be found.
4.Disk Drill: Disk Drill is a powerful tool for data recovery on Mac. It can scan your hard drive and find deleted or lost files, and then help you get them back.
5.PhotoRec: PhotoRec is a free, open-source utility that specializes in recovering photos (including RAW images), videos, documents, and other types of files from all available storage media.
Don't forget the warnings:
1) Never store new data on the same partition/device after the incident.
2) If you use an SSD, the chances are less than if you used an HDD
3) Always back up your valuable data
