Data Recovery Labs in Darlington
Are you looking for methods to restore data in Darlington? Are you interested in prices for recovering a hard disk, memory card or USB flash drive?

Reviews about «SJ Systems»
SJ Systems sourced me a laptop some time ago, with no fuss at all. Having assessed my requirements I was found a great deal which I was unable to beat elsewhere. The laptop was set up for me and was ready to go as soon as I received it with all of the programs that I had wanted (a great advantage for a self confessed technophobe).
Since then I have had a full recovery of data and repair following me dropping the computer (and having no hope that any of my work would be recovered). Some time later I also needed a screen repair after another accident and again this was attended to with great communication, minimal cost and excellent efficiency. I would have no hesitation in recommending SJ Systems at all.

Fantastic service right from the beginning. Even before I'd decided to use S J Systems Simons advice and guidance was excellent. Having decided to proceed with the necessary upgrades the excellent service continued with Simon demonstrating great awareness for the need of a quick turnaround. All this at a very competitive rate. I highly recommend S J Systems for any of your IT needs.

I had these guys out to sort my annoyingly slow computer. They resolved my problem, gave my PC a once over health check, and sorted out a wireless connectivity problem while here. Great service and well priced.
2014.04.25 08:02
Simon installed our new office network system for us last month. We are more than happy with the great work he has done for us. Overall a very high quality and professional job. Highly recommended!
2014.04.28 13:25
I tried to manually install some RAM into my computer myself but the whole system became unworkable. Simon came out and fixed the problem (bios?) . He also identified that my computer was slow due to malware. He fixed this by installing and running free software for me which sped things up dramatically.
A great service at a good price. 5 * !

Reviews about «CDS DARLINGTON»
FIRST CLASS SERVICE EVERY TIME!
I first used this company quite a few years ago on the recommendation of a good friend and have continued to use them whenever I've had computer problems. I called in a couple of hours ago with my laptop, which had a faulty power connection. I've just been and picked it up, less than 3 hours after dropping it off, all done and a new power port fitted. The service here is 100% which has never changed from the first time I used them. The staff are very nice and explain everything very clearly, what more could anyone want. I wouldn't go anywhere else for computer repairs and I will always recommend CDS Computers to anyone, just as I always have done. x

Reviews about «Currys PC World Featuring Carphone Warehouse»
We've just been in to Carphone Warehouse for my daughters new phone. Shes on a tight budget but the sales assistant was so helpful. He went through all our costing options and gave us some excellent advice about all the options available.
A 5 star rating for me
2019.07.27 16:17
Took a 10 month old faulty dashcam for replacement under Curry's' instant replacement plan. All dealt with efficiently and without fuss.
2019.08.12 09:31
Honestly I spent over 40 minutes looking at cookers in Currys, and no one came near me until I finally called someone over to supposedly help me. The question related to an unknown icon on the dial, as my wife and I couldn't figure out what it meant? The assistant didn't know either, but she had the sense to check for an instruction book, which was not available.
I'm thinking if I actually worked somewhere I think I would feel a professional pride in finding out as much as possible about the products on sale on my shop floor?
Or is it 70yr old me?
2019.03.27 18:16
Very good thay had every thing I wanted very helpful very good service. 😏
2019.07.10 09:11

Reviews about «Mowden Park Post Office»
Fantastic service always, friendly helpful staff, can't rate highly enough
2019.11.09 07:59
I am the owner of this busy little post office and myself and my team always try our best to help our customers with their needs at all times. I give us 5 stars but then I'm probably a bit biased, give us a go and make up your own mind. We'd be pleased to see you wether you need the Post Office, quality greets cards or stationery. Simon and the team.
2018.03.13 12:29
Nice little local post office.Very convenient and friendly staff.
2018.03.19 21:38
I've used this place several times now, and the service always seems to be unfriendly and unhelpful. A very old-school post office, there are better options in Cockerton and Blackwell, both of which we now use in preference to here.

Excellent helpful service
2019.04.16 09:50
The worst post office in the town. When you will send something after 5.30PM always is problem. One time system down, sometimes nobody know how send something, today women said me “I can’t”. When you working and don’t have time to send something go to different place!
2018.05.24 17:29
Very friendly Staff, super helpful.
I posted an item (I had sold on Ebay) and 20 minutes later realized the address was wrong.
I called them to ask if they could hold it for me and they offered to change the address label themselves and post for me to save me the bother of popping back in.
Excellent Service!!

Reviews about «Cockerton Post Office»
A very good post office. Staff are always friendly and it is very useful to have one in this part of Darlington. The parking outside is useful, but obviously very busy at times so the location is great because of the streets available within a short walk. If you are using public transport, it is close to a number of bus stops, making the location even better.
Additionally, the number of shops, and the range of businesses in the close proximity makes this ideal for somewhere to call in during a quick shopping trip, or to do some shopping after visiting the post office.
The range of services inside makes this more than just somewhere you would go to post something, and there is a good variety of cards, stationery, and things to do with postage such as padded envelopes, brown paper, bubble wrap, and sticky tape, so don't panic if you want to post something that haven't packaged it beforehand.
2018.10.13 12:13
Friendly staff, good service.

Reviews about «Royal Mail»
What more can I say about the Royal Mail. They are a fantastic service whom I have never particularly had a problem with. I always get my mail and items delivered and if they are unable to post them. The main depot is less than 2 miles away from my house. They are also open on a weekend extremely early, which is convenient for me.
2019.11.22 17:31
No parking... Frustrating! Other than that great service
2019.12.06 13:55
Staff at the desk are unlikely to be very helpful. Seems I, and other family members catch them on bad days. Very short, and hardly ever wanting to answer questions.
2019.07.18 22:14
Great staff at callers centre
2019.10.21 08:46
Would be better if there was somewhere to park for the short time needed to pick up a parcel. Doesn't feel very welcoming. Shame, as the staff are always helpful.

Certainly no issues here, always found staff helpful friendly & a good laugh, it's abut annoying if busy as the post office & general til are separate usually you'll find a single member of staff serving.
It's clean & tidy, prices are ok & you've a pretty good selection of stock to choose from.
2018.12.27 18:52

Reviews about «Albert Road Post Office»
DISGUSTING and UNPROFESSIONAL service by the man. Obviously hates his life and all his customers. DO NOT BUY FROM HERE! He’s rude and will ignore you half the time. Not to mention SHOUTING at you if you only use paypoint. STAY CLEAR!
Will be reporting to Trading Standards!
2019.11.26 14:03
sadly one of the most unhelpful managers i have met.I had a urgent royal mail return but refused to take it.Spoke to royal mail and they agreed numerous complaints! please think twice before using this branch.
2019.09.29 09:50
This is a 0 star review. I don’t even know where to begin with the faults of this shop. The man and woman who work there have terrible customer service skills. I’ve walked in to a strong smell of cannabis as if being smoked in the back, they have their baby at the tills screaming half the time, they overcharge on products like tobacco (amber leaf in Morrison’s is £13.50. In this shop it’s £14.50), they regularly turn the fridges off so the milk ends up going off and I have mistakingly bought off milk a few times now from there. Once there was a queue for the shop part and he was on the post office part serving customer after customer telling the shop customers that they can wait and finally I’ve found both the woman and the man extremely rude on multiple occasions. Never again will I be using this store and I’ll be recommending to everyone I know to go elsewhere. Absolute disgrace.
2019.02.18 21:52
Royal Mail parcel drop off. Shop is clean, tidy and well organised. The young lady who processed my parcel was extremely professional, polite and swift. 5 Stars will use again.
2018.06.28 21:24
The other day it was a post office with no money, asked when getting money the reply was more or less "no idea"

Reviews about «Nationwide Building Society»
Very helpful staff here. They are welcoming and friendly and offer very good advice. You need to make an appointment to see Heather, the financial adviser, as she is very busy. As a member you can make an appointment for a financial review with other members of staff. They can help you save money on things like household insurance etc.
2019.11.26 11:22
Repossessed my home when interest rates were 15%+ - sold it for a profit - and kept the money.
First I learn about it is 28 years later when an agency is contacting me asking for 25% +VAT of the money in exchange for their help in getting it from the Nationwide ... unbelievable.
I was destitute because of them and they knew it ... yet they kept my money and made no effort to contact me.
Cheers ... Nationwide Darlington Branch ... I'll always have such fond memories of you and you customer service.
Will I ever get my money ... I'll keep you posted ...
2020.01.31 15:09
The staff are very helpful and friendly, the premises is fully wheelchair accessible with an automatic door and there is an ATM inside as well as outside if the weather is bad and you need cash!
I have always found it easy to get exactly what I want inside as there's always been someone to advise. At a time when many banks are reducing the numbers of staff and replacing them with machines, this branch is great for human interaction so you know you can talk things through face to face with someone.
2018.09.11 11:04
Lovely cashier very helpful
2019.07.03 13:48
Every query was directed to online or the self service machine despite the fact the branch was empty. Then the machines didn't work and had to go to the counter anyway!

Reviews about «Santander»
I had an international transfer to complete for a figure less than £200. I recalled that when I used the online method it cost an inproportionate fee, so I went into Darlington to deal with the issue.
'It's cheaper to do it online,' I was told, 'It will cost you £25 to do the transfer within a branch, but only £10 if you do so on your home banking.'
Hello, whoever is reading these in Santander!
I came home and did my transfer online only to be told at the end of the transaction that I'd been charged £25 for the privilege.
I now have to ask myself if the staff member didn't know the charge, or if she simply didn't feel like doing her job properly.
2019.11.28 14:32
I bank with Santander and this is my local branch. I went in to this branch to get some statements printed off as I don't have a printer at home. First of all I had to wait in a massive queue as there was only 1 member of staff on. When I reached the front and told the lady I would like some past dated statements printed off she sent me to a waiting area and I waited for quite some time before another member of staff approached me telling me I had to use the computer and do it myself. After logging into my account and finding the statements I needed I then had to wait for seemed like an eternity yet again whilst my statements were collected from the printer and checked. My first question would be, if you have to do everything yourself then why employ staff or even better why have a branch here? Next time I need statements printing I think I will use the library. It's quicker and less hassle

Reviews about «Asda Darlington Superstore»
Absolutely awful experience at this ASDA tonight. We fancied a couple of the ‘create your own’ pizzas tonight but walked away from the counter empty handed. The girl who was behind the counter was EXTREMELY ignorant and more interested in talking to her colleague about which Doritos she was having at the end of her shift. Completely ignoring the growing queue of people waiting to be served. I suggest you employ somebody with better customer service skills.
2019.12.31 20:02
Was seriously misled by superstore label. This is a corner shop with pretensions. Good sized car park for a small shared premises. Once inside found it had scan and go but then the good news stopped. Found the shop cramped and old style lighting made it feel dark. It had a small range of goods with hardly any vegetables and those they were supposed to be selling were out of stock. Rather strange layout. Does have a tiny selection of electrical goods and clothing. It would be better if those were removed to make room for some basics in food and homewares. Not a pleasant experience. Staff were scarce but those who were around were helpful. I will not be returning to this store, there are better places in Darlington to shop.
2019.10.29 15:11
Very disappointed with my last visit. I took my disabled friend shopping in her wheelchair and there was no attachable trolleys available and a staff member shouting that no manned tills were opened because we'd gone shopping before 8am but its quiet at 7am and easy to manoeuvre a wheelchair around the store. I've given one star because we love asda food but found customer care seriously lacking on this occasion
2019.08.21 11:23
Got what i needed, great shopping ecperience
2020.02.25 19:16
Lots of bargains on the George sale. A fitting room would be a nice addition to the store, however.
A good selection of grocery products at quite reasonable prices too. Staff are friendly.

Manager check yours cameras if you doubt me, 31st july, approx 3.40pm onwards, sfaff need training!!!!
2018.07.31 22:19
Experience today was awful
The manager - the lady with the brown hair needs the sack
Tried to change address she asked for a letter of previous address we have never heard of this all you need is your card and pin
All our letters are packed away in a storage unit hence why we are changing address as we've moved
She asked for any letter so my wife brought in her pregnancy notes and she said its not good enough after stating to bring anything in
We was in and out 3 times
3rd time lucky we got the young lad with short hair and glasses he was a lovely chap a lifesaver
Avoid the manager...
I'll change the review if she does away with her own silly policies and we get a apology.

Terrible service. This place is very thin on ground of staff and they just palm you off with phone numbers to ring for business banking. I’ve now left and set up an on-line banking account- much simpler!
2019.05.21 14:46
Always fantastic service, and the team do their very best for me
2019.06.14 16:35
I have never been disappointed when visiting here. Whether it's to withdraw a few pounds or just to make a cash deposit the staff are very happy to help, the banking machines are effective and let you do what you need to do quickly. However if you have to line up and actually see a clerk there will inevitably be someone checking balances as they transfer money from one account to another and withdrawing specifically what they need, taking far longer than they should. I try to be as quick as I can when seeing a clerk. The downside to the self service trend this bank adopted a few years back is that there are now only 2 cashiers available at the bank. I would personally have at least 3 but that's just me. Unless they're really busy then they pull 1 clerk off the desk to help the public. Yeah there is issues but I give 5 stars for service here and the bank is open on Saturdays!

If there is no decent PC repair shop in your area, send you storage device to data recovery lab from the nearest post office. You can pay for recovery services or software registration at any bank.
Stop using the device where you used to keep the deleted data.
Work of the operating system, installation of programs, and even the ordinary act of connecting a disk, USB drive or smartphone to the computer will create new files that might overwrite the deleted data - and thus make the recovery process impossible. The best solution would be to shut down the computer of power off your phone and outline an action plan. If turning off the device is impossible, try to use it as little as possible.
Make up a list of devices where the necessary files have been saved.
Try to remember the chain of events from creating the files to deleting them. You may have received them by email, downloaded from the Internet, or you may have created them on another PC and then brought them home on a USB drive. If the files in question are personal photos or videos, they can still be available on the memory card of your camera or smartphone. If you received the information from someone else - ask them for help. The sooner you do it the more chances you have to recover what is lost.
Use the list of devices to check them for the missing files, their backup copies or, at least, the chance to recover the deleted data from such devices.
Windows backup and restore
You can create backups in Windows both with the system tools and third-party apps.
-
📝 File History
File History is meant to keep versions of all files in a certain folder or on a specific disk. By default, it backs up such folders as Documents, Pictures etc, but you can also add new directories as well.
-
🔄 System restore points
Restore points are the way to save copies of user folders, system files, registry and settings for a specific date. Such copies are either created manually or automatically when updates are installed or critical Windows settings are modified.
-
📀 Recovery image
A system recovery image allows you to create an image of the system drive (you can also include other drives if necessary). Speaking of such image, we mean a complete copy of the entire drive.
-
📁 Registry backup and restore
In addition to restoring user files, Windows gives you an opportunity to cancel any changes you may have made to the system registry.
-
📀 SFC and DISM
System files and libraries can be recovered with a hidden recovery disk by using the SFC and DISM commands.
-
🛠️ Recovering file system
Often, data can be lost because of a data carrier failure. If that is the case, you don’t have to rush to a PC repair shop; try to restore operability of the storage device on your own. If you see the “Please insert a disk” error, a device is recognized as having a RAW file system, or the computer shows a wrong disk size, use the Diskpart command:
-
👨💻 Restore system boot
If data was lost and now the operating system seems inoperable, and Windows can’t start or gets into a boot loop, watch this tutorial:
-
♻️ Apps for backup
Third-party backup applications can also create copies of user files, system files and settings, as well as removable media such as memory cards, USB flash drives and external hard disks. The most popular products are Paragon Backup Recovery, Veeam Backup, Iperius Backup etc.
Mac OS backup and restore
The backup is implemented with Time Machine function. Time Machine saves all versions of a file in case it is edited or removed, so you can go back to any date in the past and copy the files you need.
Android backup and restore
Backup options for Android phones and tablets is implemented with the Google account. You can use both integrated system tools and third-party apps.
Backup and restore for iPhone, iPad with iOS
You can back up user data and settings on iPhone or iPad with iOS by using built-in tools or third-party apps.
In 2024, any operating system offers multiple solutions to back up and restore data. You may not even know there is a backup in your system until you finish reading this part.

What methods or techniques does a PC repair service in Darlington use to recover data from a computer that won't boot into the operating system or displays a black screen?
A PC repair service in Darlington may use several methods or techniques to recover data from a computer that won't boot into the operating system or displays a black screen. Some common approaches include:
- External Storage: The technician may remove the hard drive from the non-booting computer and connect it to another working computer using an external hard drive enclosure or adapter. This allows them to access the files and copy them to a separate storage device.
- Live Bootable USB/DVD: They may create a bootable USB or DVD with a live operating system (such as Linux) and use it to boot the non-functional computer. This bypasses the installed operating system and allows the technician to access and recover data from the hard drive.
- Data Recovery Software: If the issue is not hardware-related, the technician may use specialized data recovery software to attempt to retrieve the files. These programs can scan the hard drive for lost or deleted files and recover them.
- Hardware Diagnostics: If the problem is suspected to be hardware-related, the technician may perform various diagnostic tests to identify and fix the underlying issue. Once the hardware problem is resolved, they can then boot the computer and recover the data.
- Backup Restoration: If the user had previously created a backup of their data, the technician may restore the files from the backup source. This assumes that the backup is up-to-date and accessible.
It's important to note that the success of data recovery depends on the specific issue causing the computer to not boot or display a black screen. In some cases, the data may be irretrievable if there is severe hardware damage or corruption.
