Windows File Recovery Tool – Better and Faster

October 5, 2020

You no longer need to install a third party tool to recover deleted files from your Windows 10 computer. If you are running the latest version of Windows 10 (Build 2004), you can install Microsoft's new file recovery tool. According to a post on TechViral, Microsoft's file recovery tool is better and faster than third-party data recovery tools. TechViral has instructions on how to install and use the tool.

Basically, you go to the Microsoft store and download the Windows Recovery Tool. Once installed, you run the tool using command line options from an elevated command prompt. In other words, you launch a Command Prompt using "Run as administrator" option. The post runs through various command line options to recover files. Try it out. The tool can recover almost any file type.
