All in all, if you are interested in restoring documents or images, MiniTool Data Recovery will make a good choice.

Meanwhile, the tool doesn’t look impressive when it comes to dealing with media formats. In our test, the tool recovered only 63% of the files regardless of how they were lost. As well as many other programs, MiniTool recovered some audio files in small fragments, i.e. partially.
