My memory stick has corrupted (it says it needs to be formatted) and there is some data I want to get of it.
What is the best file recovery software both free and commercial?
(note: It corrupted just as I was about to back it up).
I have tried getdataback for FAT but it doesnt detect anything.
thank you.

What is the best data recovery software?
On of the best solutions on the market is Easy Drive Data Recovery software:
http://www.munsoft.com/EasyDriveDataRecovery/
It uses unique modern algorithms to recover files that other software either recovers incorrectly or is unable to detect.
The best one I used is Wondershare Data Recovery
the standards I used to judge this software are professional function, easy-to-use,compatible to computer’s operating system and competitive price.
If the data is really important for you, I suggest you use professional one, even though it charges few dollar. I think you data is more important than few dollars
Free download from http://www.data-recovery-utilities.com/data-recovery.html
It is a professional recovery software to do deleted recovery, formatting recovery, partition recovery and RAW recovery.
you can specify sub-folder instead of whole disk to save you much time and energy.
you can preview your data from Preview Window to check if all the data you need are recoverable and evaluate the recovery quality before you buy.
DiskGetor data recovery is best formatted data recovery software , recover data from formatted hard drive, formatted partition, formatted usb, formatted memory card, etc
