New Undelete v5.0 Gets Back Overwritten Office Files

Posted by on Feb 2, 2005 | 3 Comments

Executive Software announced the release of new Undelete 5.0 which not only simplifies and speeds up retrieval of lost or deleted data, but now adds automatic file versioning for Microsoft Office files. Users with the least protection, such as students and home office users now have a powerful and easy to use data protection solution.

As users modify and save Word documents, Excel spreadsheets or PowerPoint files, Undelete 5 will transparently capture the earlier versions of these files in the exact state they were in before being modified and saved. Sometimes users need to go back to an earlier version and new Undelete 5.0 now provides that missing version protection as well as deleted file protection.

According to George Goodrich, Undelete Product Manager for Executive Software, “Anyone who uses Microsoft Office will benefit from the new, expanded data and version protection provided by Undelete 5.0. We’ve all had moments where having access to all the earlier versions of a file we’ve been working on for weeks would have made a huge difference. It only takes just one of these incidents to appreciate the importance of the data protection safety net that’s put in place the moment you install Undelete 5.0 on your desktop or laptop.”

Now more than ever Undelete saves users the time, trouble and aggravation it would take to recreate work lost due to improvident file deletions and/or file version overwrites. Best of all, users can recover their own files without having to involve helpdesk or other IT staff bandwidth.

Undelete first gained popularity in the corporate market because it was the only software available that could instantly recover deleted files from anywhere on the network, even the many files that completely bypassed the recycle bin Undelete 5.0 runs on Microsoft Windows XP, Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Windows Server 2003.

Undelete Professional, Home, or Server versions are available here. or through your favorite reseller. Undelete lists for $39.95 for the Workstation, $29.95 for the Home edition, or $299.95 for a Server version.

    This post is worth it just for the “Don’t buy a box” tip. A year down the road if you reinstall from a disk you’re going to have to sit through 5 hours of updates anyway for a game that is probably fairly different from the original manual. No need for it.

    I read the entire article and this seems to be just another simple drawing app. Same standard and limited features. Where’s the File Open, Effects, Layers? How do I know what file type is supports and converts to and etc.? I’m talking about the Advanced stuff for advanced artists..

    If you want a real program (I don’t wanna call it app), check out MyPaint for Linux/Maemo OS.. and potentially MeeGo in the future.
