    *  DOS/Win9x
    * Windows NT 4/2000/XP/2003/Vista
    * Linux
    * FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD
    * Sun Solaris
    * Mac OS X
While other recovery softwares rely on file systems.This software doesnot rely on file systems to recover hence it can recover data even the file system is completely damaged.let us understand how any recovering tool works Any file system stores data in clusters or datablocks in continous locations.When a file is deleted the metainformation about the file such as file name,date, time,size are lost but the data is still present on the system until is overwritten so there is a good chance to recover lost data .
Download this tool from here Photorec .After downloading the file extract to anywhere you like .Since mine is windows system ill show you how to recover in windows.Navigate to the folder where You have extracted locate the photorec_win.exe file now right click on it and run as administrator 

Now the command line interface opens up, from the list of disks select the disk you wish to recover.Here i have chosen my pendrive to recover

Next it asks to select the filesystem ,since this makes its work easier

  Again press enter key to display the memory device

Depending on the type file system select ext2/ext3 for ext file system,for remaining file systems select other since mine is a fat32 system i have selected other option and pressed enter.
Next it asks for the space to be analyzed whether free space to be analyzed or whole .Here there is a small logic according to photorec free space means the are which is made free by accidentaly deleting files.So i opted for free space option .
In the next step it asks where to save the recovered files give the location other than from which you are recovering files

It does the remaining job .Sorry friends for posting such a long post .But this post has got high level of importance thanku for ur patience so that you came this long .
Hurray see my recovered photos
