File repair

The only Mac recovery app that also repairs your files.

Recovery finds your files. Repair makes them usable. DataRecover Pro rebuilds corrupted photos, videos, and documents so a recovered file actually opens — not a broken-image icon.

When you recover data from a damaged, formatted, or partially overwritten drive, the bytes often come back out of order or missing the structure that makes them readable. The photo is mostly there; the header is gone. The video is mostly there; the index is gone. Recovery-only tools hand you those broken bytes and stop. DataRecover Pro keeps going.

Its repair engine identifies the format the data should be, then reconstructs what's broken — rewriting headers, rebuilding indexes, re-stitching frames, and salvaging every valid byte it can. Repair happens automatically as part of recovery, so you receive a working file instead of an error message.

What it repairs

Photos — including RAW

JPEG, PNG, HEIC, TIFF, and RAW formats (Canon CR2/CR3, Nikon NEF, Sony ARW, Fujifilm RAF, Panasonic RW2, and more). Rebuilds headers and IFD indexes and restores EXIF so editors recognize the file again.

Video — MP4 & MOV

Rebuilds the moov atom and frame tables, re-stitches video and audio streams, and rewrites a valid container so a recovered clip plays in QuickTime and beyond.

Documents

Reconstructs the structure of corrupted PDFs and Office documents so they open instead of reporting damage.

Archives & more

Rebuilds damaged ZIP tables of contents and other container formats to recover the files trapped inside.

Three tiers of repair

Clean

Fixes minor structural damage with no data loss — the file is whole, only its framing was broken.

Structural

Rebuilds the container around intact media streams when more of the structure is missing.

Partial

Salvages the readable portion when a file is only partly recoverable. Half a video — or a cropped photo — beats nothing.

Repair that can't hurt your Mac

Repairing a corrupted file means parsing untrusted, malformed data. DataRecover Pro runs every repair in a sandboxed worker process with no network access and no ability to write elsewhere on your filesystem — so even a deliberately malformed file is contained.
