FAQs – Corrupted File Repair

Can you fix partially overwritten files?
Sometimes — we assess the damage and attempt partial content reconstruction where headers and metadata still exist.

Yes — including USB sticks, SD cards, and SSDs with errors.

Can you repair encrypted files?
If the encryption key is available, we can attempt decryption and repair.
