Recovering files from Time Machine requires diligence, especially when the backups are taken frequently. As older backup files are removed, they remain on the drive until a new backup file requires the space. If you act quickly, it is possible to regain the entire backup file or any needed information. Stellar Phoenix Macintosh Data Recovery is one option for locating a deleted backup and retrieving data.
The utility is able to locate any files that have been removed but not overwritten on the drive including those stored as part of backups. It is capable of scanning any local or external drive you have set up for the backup process. Mac Data Recovery HQ provides a number of options to ensure a successful data retrieval. Once the scan has finished, you will be able to:
- Regain entire backups
- Recover selected files
- Preview files before recovery
- Search for specific files
- View results by type or save location
