I needed to get some data and code off of a 5.25 inch floppy disk.

Out of a list of datarecovery software tools  I tried

  1. FlopShow
  2. PCInspector File Recovery – PCInspector File Recovery recovered the data I needed
  3. Disk Investigator  – good tool and I will see if I need to use it
  4. OmniFlopOmniFlop Manual – A very interesting tool that allows you to import data in non PC formats via your PC floppy drive.  Only runs on 2000 or beyond.  I want to use it to recover some Commodore 64 files. Woot!
