• Recover deleted files.
• Recover lost files.
  
• Recover files from volumes with file system erros.
  
• Recover files from formatted cards.
  
• Recover data left from prior formats.

Nate-Adcock has performed a detailed review and tests of Wizcode Storage Tools - ScanDisk Mobile, Undelete Mobile and Defragment Mobile on SmartPhone and PocketPC Magazine's web site.

"If you change the data on your cards frequently as I do, you will eventually find that file system access (even via file explorer for example) becomes slower as an ever larger number of directories and files are populated. Cards are also prone to becoming corrupted from the frequent moving around from device-to-device (digital camera, PDA, computer). This is usually perceived as a hang of file listings and missing/corrupt data or unusable space (i.e. space shows as available, but unable to write anything to it). I have yet to find a tool that reliably fixes these problems, but it would be nice to have one on the device itself. Mounting storage media in Windows is often problematic all on it's own. Whenever you move data around on a disk, you risk possibly corrupting it."

"The Undelete product worked as advertised. You can reliably restore deleted files using this tool."

"Finally tested the latest versions and confirmed that the scanner and defrag utilities are fully functional. I was able to defrag one of my cards that was heavily reported to be fragmented successfully. I recommend these products and commend the vendor for being very responsive to these tests and quickly developing a patch to fix any issues. However, you should always download a trial of any mobile software and test it with your device to be sure it will work for you."

sammy has published a nice review of Wizcode Undelete Mobile on BrightHub.

"It's easy to panic when you accidentally delete one or more of your important office documents or your personal identification information from the storage card on your Windows Mobile Smartphone. When you realize the seriousness of the blunder that has been accidentally committed, you're more than likely bound to panic. You might think about taking the services of a data recovery professional, but that's bound to burn a large hole in your pockets (larger thani you might magine). This is where Wizcode Undelete Mobile comes into the picture."

March 19th, 2009 - Wizcode LLC (http://www.wizcode.com), the leading publisher of software for mobile devices, announced today the official release of ScanDisk Mobile - storage card health monitoring and error repair software for Windows Mobile Pocket PCs. ScanDisk Mobile is a new product based on several Wizcode projects - Evolution, Phoenix, and FATFS.

Storage cards are susceptible to errors. Over time, clusters can become corrupted, part of files can become lost, and a range of other errors can occur. Using Wizcode ScanDisk Mobile to find and repair and file system problems may save you from a whole lot of lost data in the long run.

File system errors are the number one reason for data corruption and loss of important files and data on your Windows Mobile device. Every time a program locks up or you soft reset your Windows Mobile device because an application stopped responding, there is a risk of introducing errors on your storage card. If the mobile device is interrupted while writing information on the storage card, the resulting data is often incomplete. Most often this happens because the operating system is not able to update the FAT tables or the file chains because of the lock up/soft reset. No matter what the potential cause may be, it is quite possible that lost clusters and/or chains are on your storage card. A lost cluster or chain is data that is “lost” and cannot be accessed through the file system. This can also cause random lock-ups or application errors.

If ScanDisk is not performed on a regular basis your device may become sluggish in performance. ScanDisk is one of the essential tools used to maintain performance and error-free file management.

March 12th, 2009 - Wizcode LLC (http://www.wizcode.com), the leading publisher of software for mobile devices, announced today the official release of it's new data recovery application for Windows Mobile - Wizcode Undelete Mobile.

Undelete Mobile is the first in it's class data recovery product for Pocket PCs that can recover deleted files and data from storage cards. Undelete Mobile understands the internals of the file system used to store files on a storage card (the FAT file system), and uses this knowledge to locate the storage card space that was occupied by a deleted file and restore the file data.

Wizcode Undelete Mobile can recover deleted files from any storage card visible by the mobile device host OS when files were:

• Deleted without using recycle bin*.
• Removed by virus attack, malware, power failure or system crash.
• Removed when recycle bin has been emptied.

*Files deleted with a file shredder like the one featured in Virtual Explorer cannot be recovered.

The application could not be easier to use - all that should be done to recover deleted data is just to start Undelete Mobile, select the storage card where the deleted files are, and choose the files to recover.

Undelete Mobile is the first application built upon the recently announced frameworks developed by Wizcode - Evolution, Phoenix, and FATFS.
