  • Can recover a computer that no longer boots its installed system.
  • One bootable stick with partitioning, imaging, filesystem repair and data recovery tools
  • Handles ext4, xfs, btrfs, vfat and NTFS, so it rescues Windows machines too
  • You need bootable media and storage for the backup image.

  • The tools are powerful and unforgiving; a wrong partition command destroys data
