How to recover data from scratched/damaged CDs and DVDs

We often wonder if we can play our old damaged CDs or DVDs or we just want to recover an important data from damaged/scratched discs.We sometimes gives external treatment to the cd by polishing it but it occasionally fails to solve our problem.But this problem can be easily sort out by using a simple software tool i.e Get My Videos Back, that can be downloaded free from here.

Get My Videos Back is a small and simple application specificly designed to help you save video or audio files from scratched CDs or DVDs quickly and easy. This tool has several different options and features to save your media files.One of the features it includes is "byte mode" where you can read the source file from byte to byte. This might be helpfull if the source media has lots of small scratches.

Instructions:

1. Download the software from here,and run GVMB.exe file.
2. Click open and start button.
3. Select the Source file and then Destination location.

The source file type by default supports all type of media file like MPEG,MP3,MP4 etc. But i had tried to recover several other formats of file by changing file type to All files instead of All media files during the source file selection step and it works perfectly for that also.So this program which is built basically to recover media files can recover almost all file formats.

How to undelete and recover your deleted files

Sometimes it happens with us that we accidently delete files permanently instead of sending them to recylebin,but soon we realize that it a important file or sometime a virus does this problem , we wonder if we can recover that file.Don't panic now dig them with Disk Digger

Disk Digger is a program that undeletes and recovers lost files from your hard drive, memory cards, USB flash drives — you name it! Whether you accidentally deleted some documents or photos from your computer, reformatted your camera's memory card, or want to see what files are lurking on an old USB drive, DiskDigger is very useful tool to do this for you.

It Support various file formats that it can recover:

1. Support for recovering Matroska videos (.MKV)
2. Support for recovering CDXA videos
3. Support for recovering MPEG videos, which also includes several other video formats that use the MPEG structure, such as .VOB (DVD video files) and .MOD (videos recorded by certain digital cameras). Unfortunately the program can't detect the size of the video, so it will ask for the amount of data to recover for each video. Improvements to this functionality will come in a future update!
4. Support for CAB files (Microsoft Cabinet archives)
5. Support for CHM files (Microsoft Compiled HTML Help)
6. Support for SZDD files (files compressed with COMPRESS.EXE from MS-DOS)
7. And many more......

Note: Remember that the above file formats are implemented when running DiskDigger in "deeper" mode. When running in "deep" mode (at the filesystem level), all possible file formats can be recovered.

It works with Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP.
