Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery is a Mac utility created for people who wish to restore lost files from their computers, USB sticks or memory cards.
You can choose between 4 scan modes (Fast Scan, Undelete, Unformat, and Deep Scan) and filter the results list. The utility also features options to save and load scan results.
An important aspect you need to consider before launching the recovery process is to select a destination folder for the restored data that's not on the scanned drive/device.
In my testing, I had to restart the app in order to identify the USB stick that I inserted after launching Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery. Hence, the program doesn't list devices that were connected to your Mac after the app was opened.
The application also lacks an option to scan individual folders.
Still, not many efficient file recovery programs come without price tags. So, it's worth trying Lazesoft Mac Data Recovery on your Mac to find and restore lost files. You have nothing to lose.
