The developers at iSkysoft have made the revision after months of hard work, ensuring that each customer suggestion is taken into account. The result is something spectacular!

Part 1: Old versus the New - What Has Changed in the New Version 5.0

The new version takes a completely different approach when compared to the previous versions. In the new version, you will find the software is designed to be faster without compromising on quality. The new version has been tested on different platforms to ensure that it is stable for use from day one. Since Recoverit (IS) works on both Mac and Windows, it is very important that we ensure stability, and Recoverit (IS) 5.0 certainly delivers.

We will go through some of the prominent changes that have been introduced in the iSkysoft 5.0

1. Updated interface - Easy to use, tons of info!

Let's start with the cosmetic changes that come with the new update.  Right of the bat, you can see that the new version shows much more intuitive information compared to the previous version. You don't need to puzzle about the situations how your data get lost any more.  And it doesn't come at the cost of readability. It is still very easy to use and makes the job of recovering files easy even for a beginner.

2. Scanning and recovery made faster and better

The primary object of Recoverit (IS) is to scan for lost files. In the new update, you will notice that the number of steps involved in the process has been reduced.

In the new version, it only takes two steps to recover your lost files.

• Choose the drive to scan
• Preview and recover the files found

This saves you time and makes the whole process much simpler than before. The scanning algorithm has also undergone many revisions to eke out as much speed as possible. The new algorithm is faster at scanning without compromising on file integrity.

3. Intuitive classification panel

We received a lot of suggestions for improving the recovery tab. Many users wanted more classification options when it came to file formats and types. We have taken this to consideration and made changes to the recovery tab so that you can have a more fluid browsing Experience.

The new version of iSkysoft has a very intuitive classification system. Now you can find the recovered files neatly categorized based on their file formats, file types and files systems.

The new update also brings support for the recovery of RAW files and they are displayed on a separate section.

4. Redesigned preview and recovery

Previewing files before recovering them is a feature loved by all of our users. We are happy to announce that we have updated the preview and recovery pane to add in support for more file types.

You can preview media files directly from the recovery window. If the computer has changed the name of the file while deleting it, preview the file is a great way to know which files you are actually recovering. However, some system files, or files oversized (30M for Win version and 15M for Mac version of Recoverit (IS)) cannot be opened directly from recovery pane as it required specialized software based on their file type.

The new recovery system in Recoverit (IS) is much more powerful at scanning the individual sectors of the storage device. If you need more power, then the Deep Scan will uncover even the most hidden files on your storage device.

5. Better support for more file types

Since the limit in file size, some of users may wonder what types and formats of data iSkysoft supports. Surprisingly, almost all the common files and data can be previewed without any limit and damage. It will also have no influence on the space of the program occupies on your computer.

6. Better support for more storage devices/ file system

1# Recover from all storage devices

With each year, new devices and storage options are released. These devices are more advanced and might use newer technologies. So it is of paramount importance that with each iteration, iSkysoft needs to support these devices. The new version of iSkysoft supports:

2# Recover from all file systems and OS

Recoverit (IS) also is compatible with even the latest filesystems to help users recover their important data.

Part 2: Updates of Recoverit (IS) 5.0

Now let's have a more in-depth review of Recoverit (IS) 5.0 features and the impact of overall changes.

1. Simple yet effective interface

Data recovery is a time-sensitive process and if you do not recover the files on a storage device within a certain amount of time, there is a risk of overwriting the files. so we made sure that very little time is lost navigating the software.

We achieved this by integrating the home screen with the drive pane. Now when you launch the software, it will show the drive information from the home screen itself.

The drives are neatly categorized based on their designation. You can easily see the segregation between internal drives, external drives, trash, etc.

The last part "Computer Crash Recovery" is to help you recover data lost due to computer system crash. The steps will be different. You need to create a bootable media first with Recoverit (IS), then restart the crashed computer and let it boot from the bootable media. Once it has booted, you will be able to extract the data that was on the computer.

2. More powerful preview

One of the strong suites of dr.fone was that it helps users to preview the files. This meant that users could get to know the files before recovering them. It helps you reduce the errors where the users spent time in recovering the files only to know that they are different ones what they needed. This happens every so often because when you delete the files, the computer may give it a random name consisting of alphanumerical values.

The new and improved preview feature brings in a much larger preview window, and support for previewing more files types, such as photos, videos, audios, PPT files, Word files, Excel files or other documents, and so forth. When you view the files, it is the same as that you open them on your computer directly. Also, during the scanning, if you choose the square view on the bottom left, you can directly preview the content of txt. and log files in thumbnails. It will help you locate and find the files you want to recover more effectively and easily.

Helpful guides and tips for Preview:

The new updates bring in support for messages and guides that will help you in the Preview process. Users will find tips and tricks that will help you make the right decisions. Let's go through some of the new additions.
